Knitting, Clematis and Friendship

A friend’s Mum has joined me in knitting tiny jumpers and beanie hats for the babies in Tanzania. She has posted them off to KnitzTanzania already and sent me a photo. Aren’t they beautiful?

My favourite September Clematis, Lady Betty Balfour, has crept all the way along the green and white Pittosporum hedge and is tumbling down in a beautiful purple cascade.

Sue-next-door called in this afternoon for a catch up over a cuppa and that was lovely. Another lifting of spirits! Feeling better day by day now.

Home-made Bread, Blackcurrant Jam and Love

A lovely friend called in to visit today bearing the most delicious gifts! There was freshly baked and still warm whole meal bread made by G and five tiny jars of homemade Blackcurrant Jam made by N, a little of which we had this afternoon for tea. Bread and jam – surely the ultimate comfort food!

As if that weren’t enough, N also brought six beautifully fresh eggs laid by their chickens so my favourite breakfast of poached egg on toast is all sorted too! Thank you, N&G for your love and your generosity.
