not ventured far


What have you been up to this weekend? We haven't ventured far. The car boot [of course], a little food shopping and evening walks to our neighbouring villages for drinks. Otherwise we've been home, working hard, cleaning the house, tidying the blog [hope you like the new look]. Afternoons in the garden pruning the apple trees. We're looking forward to good food later, D's sourdough bread, slow roast beef and delicious strawberries for pud [totally out of season, but 3 boxes for £1 at the boot I couldn't not]. 

Just want to thank you all for the lovely comments you've been leaving of late, I really appreciate them. 

This plant, stromanthe sanguinea, is such a beauty, the colours in the leaves astound me.

    1. Thank you Jo :)

      Even when there is no nice junk I'll find something - fruit, veg, crisps, chocolate and kitchen rolls are favourites!

  2. Love the new blog look Polly, it looks great. Sounds like you had a good weekend, I really miss car boots lately, it always seems to be raining on the weekend mornings when we plan to go. xx

    1. Thank you Caroline :)

      I'm a terror when it comes to going to the boot, I often drag D along in the wet! It was yesterday and there was hardly a stall there, but still worth it for the strawberries and the fact we stop for coffee on the way home!
