Rainbows and Breakfast

The sun shining through the front door at our Daughter’s house played rainbows all along the hall carpet.

On our last day together we all went out for breakfast and I had what was described on the menu as ‘Pancake with Fruit and Maple Syrup.’ It turned out to be four pancakes! However, they were so light and fluffy that I managed them all!

And now we are home after our trip to see LiveWire no 3 in her show, Legally Blonde, and to spend time with the family.

An Idyll and A Film

Friends are on holiday. in a cabin in the woods and sent us this idyllic scene.  Just look at the burbling stream and the many primroses..

We are just home from seeing a stunning film,Palestine 36.

“The film recounts the 1936–1939 Arab revolt against British colonial rule in Palestine during the Mandate period.”

 

Double Flower, Narcissi and A Rabbit

I. realsied today that there’s a pair of flowers on one of the Fritilaria. I haven’t seen one like it before.

The narcissi in the field behind our garden are fully open and I think I caught a rabbit in the picturewhich I didn’t notice when I took the photo though the field is full of bouncing bunnies.

 

World Poetry Day, A Poem and A Flower

How did I miss World Poetry Day?

Here is an absolute gem from Brian Bilston to celebrate.

I love the colour of the anemone blanda.

Such a lovely surprise today – Our eldest daughter came to visit  –  work problems last weekend meant she couldn’t be here for Mother’s Day so she’s been here today, brought lunch and cooked dinner. What a treat to have her company for the day.

Fritillaria, Soap and Moon

It’s good to see the Fritillaria Meleagris, Snake’s Head Fritillary, coming up again.

I called into one of my favourite shops, Cornish Health Store, today to top up my supply of chocolate gingers and was given a delightful freebie of a tiny lemon soap.

Closing the curtains this evening, my lovely Mr S spotted the sliver of moon through the winter tree branches.

Posy, Signs and Sunset

We visited friends for a lovely catch-up this morning and took a little garden posy of beautifully scented Viburnum, some Summer Snowflake (Leucojum aestivum), Muscari and Forget-me-nots.

There are some very smart new street signs in town.

It being the vernal equinox and another sunny day we went to watch the sunset.  It wasn’t especially spectacular but it was lovely to be out on the cliffs in the evening sunshine. The gorse was particularly golden in the early evening light.
