The bark on our Silver Birch is fabulous against the dark purple of the Pittosporum.
On our walk into town today, we popped into our favourite coffee shop, Home Ground, to pick up a couple of their delicious Portuguese custard tarts. During lockdown they have made some really lovely improvements, one being the painting of sky on the ceiling of their outdoor space, It’s lovely.

And the birch is beautiful. So much like our local Aspen trees, many of which unfortunately are scarred by a virus likely to kill them all at our level of elevation.

Portuguese custard tarts are soooo delicious. It is just as well there’s nowhere close to me that sell them.
