April Garden 1

Our garden is a delight at the moment with blossom and daffodils, tulips and wallflowers, daisies and forget-me-nots. I’ll show you over the next few days. Tulips today……

Lunch, View and Courgettes

It was a lovely sunny morning and we took our salads to eat in the sunshine.

This was our view  of the garden from where we ate our lunch.

Last week LiveWire No 2 came to the allotment with us, April 12th, and planted the courgette seeds in the poly tunnel.  Today, some of the Shooting Stars are up already.

 

Full Moons, Strawberry and A Poem

I meant to show you this a couple of days ago when it was the full Pink moon otherwise known as the Seed Moon but we were very busy with family.

We have some strawberry plants in the poly tunnel at the allotment, a gift from another allotmenteer, and they are flowering, much to our delight.

This little poem came my way and I thought you, my dear readers, would like it too.

 

Spring Border

It’s very quiet at our house – everyone has now left and we are resting!  This is part of our front garden Spring border.

Easter Tree, Welly Dogs and Ice Creams

Our lovely five year old twin LiveWires arrived in the early hours having flown from Barcelona and after a late breakfast, decorated our little Easter tree for us.

We had a walk into town and they enjoyed meeting  our resident Tinners’ Hounds aka Welly Dogs.

After lunch we met the rest of the family on the beach at Porthtowan where they all had fun playing on the beach and later had ice creams.

Choosing their flavours

Planting, Spring Flowers and Baking

LiveWire No 2 spent the morning at the allotment with us being very helpful indeed – in the photo watering the broad beans he has just carefully planted.

On the way back home we spotted this pretty accidental planting under a hedge.

LiveWire No 4 arrives tomorrow (as do 5 and 6!) and it was just her birthday so this afternoon, LiveWire No 3 and I have baked a Chocolate Fudge cake to be the birthday cake.
