Last Goodbyes, Jasmine and The Arbour

The last family people left this morning and as you can imagine the house is eerily silent. All three can be seen waving here if you look carefully.

3   Sitting in the arbour in the sunshine this afternoon I could see that many beans are suddenly ready for harvesting so for supper tonight we are having Green Beans with Shallots (our own), Garlic (our own) and toasted almond slivers to go with a bit of leftover roasted chicken – simple and delicious.
