The days getting longer

It's over a month since my last post, so much for good intentions. I'd planned on a post per week, obviously that hasn't happened, but have stuck to my to some other resolutions. It's Lent again so I've waved goodbye to cake, biscuits, and chocolates, three weeks down, three to go. I haven't been as…Read more The days getting longer

When the north wind blows

I must be a British cliche, because quite a few of my posts mention the weather, the good and the not so good. Our prevailing winds are usually from the south west which brings us mild, but often wet weather. Sometimes though it changes direction and blows from the north east. Back in 2018 the…Read more When the north wind blows

when the weather gods are kind

I've written several times about our Argyll weather. It's usually relatively mild here but it's often wet. Very wet. And changeable, all these pictures were taken on the same hour long walk. So it's not always the best place to plan outdoor events. Last year we held a Scarecrow Festival, to raise funds for our…Read more when the weather gods are kind

29th November, almost there

Yesterday's sunset, and later starlit sky didn't deliver their promises. Today has had a grey, damp chillness. And I'm feeling at a little of a loose end. Yesterday I was very efficient and prepared tonight's supper* so there's no real cooking to do . The vegetables are ready too. celeriac chips to be air fried…Read more 29th November, almost there

A nice bowl of pasta

It's still very wet and windy. I had to be careful not to fix my gaze on the real trees outside while in tree pose this morning* I managed to fit in my walk during a brief lull after lunch, but I had to up my pace to get home before the drizzle turned to…Read more A nice bowl of pasta

Getting a chance to dress up again*

In ordinary years I would be very busy right now. I'd have lines to learn, and rehearsals to go to. We're usually right in the swing of preparations for our annual pantomime. Oh yes we are. Sorry. It isn't a Christmas show, there's always too much happening in December. Our panto brightens up the end…Read more Getting a chance to dress up again*

A walk along the Crinan canal

It's not raining! Well it wasn't last time I checked. It's dark outside now so I can't see but I can't hear any rain. But more importantly it didn't rain during the hours of daylight. So we had A DAY OUT! To be fair it's not been all that long since the last one, the…Read more A walk along the Crinan canal

Getting crafty for Christmas

It's even wetter and windier today! I had to cut short my walk, don't worry DogS got her usual long one with MrS while I was at my Zoom Yoga class. So after getting into dry clothes and finishing off yesterday's soup for lunch I settled down for an afternoon of craft. I'm not a…Read more Getting crafty for Christmas

Having an alternative

I had an idea for a post, slightly alluded to yesterday, but needed pictures. So we drove to the forestry to walk DogS and get the shots I wanted. But when we got there not only was the parking are full, one of the cars belonged to a pair of Border Terriers. Well to their…Read more Having an alternative

(Festive) baking

Among all the recipes for using up post Hallowe'en pumpkins my daily newspaper had this one today. The author Benjamina Ebuehi was a contestant on Great British Bake Off a few years ago. You can find more of her recipes here. It sounded delicious, a chocolatey variation on the traditional cake. And so I set…Read more (Festive) baking
