Morning, everyone. Welcome to my blog on a sunny but refreshing morning.
No photos of the garden today - it's not a big garden and you've already seen it all a million times (give or take) - but just to say the tomatoes are continuing to ripen, there are more blueberries to pick and there will be one big and three small cucumbers in a few days so I need to load my salads with the current cucumbers!
It was a lovely meal out yesterday lunchtime although one of my hearing aids conked out half way through which was a bit socially limiting. It had run out of charge, goodness knows why, but it seems to be charging up OK now so . . . who knows, eh?
I had a delicious spiced chicken skewer with salad and some chips and P had brought a home made sponge birthday cake along so that was dessert. It was delicious!
Such a pleasant time with lovely people.
Today I have watered the tomatoes (must keep them hydrated) and things in pots because they do dry out quickly, I've done a kitchen tidy up and I have two doughs doing their thing in the kitchen. Lindsey's sourdough will take some time but Beth's yeasted bread will be oven ready soon. It's funny how it's pretty much the same recipe, same ingredients anyway, but the outcome is so different.
I have a Little List of Little Things that need to be done, the sort of things that are easily forgotten, and I need to take Beth's bread over to her at some point but, apart from that, it's a very gently and quiet day with no meals out at all this coming week (thanks goodness).
There's Wimbledon, of course, and various YouTube things to catch up on and I have bought (for my Kindle) Philippa Gregory's book "Normal Women - 900 Years of Making History" which sounds very interesting indeed. Have any of you read this? What did you think of it?
Just remembered - it's nearly the end of Wimbledon and, true to form, I have stopped taking my hay fever meds and everything is fine. Yay!
Right - better go and check Beth's bread and then get the day started. All the best to you all - have a lovely day
xx
