We made this year’s batch of marmalade today. As always, my lovely Dad was in the kitchen with us in spirit. As readers may know, it was my Dad who made enough marmalade for the family every January and who taught me how to do the same. 
The lovely Mr S had an appointment with his physio in Perranporth this afternoon so, it being a glorious day, I went too and spent an hour mooching around the beach and having a hot chocolate with a wonderful view. I love this beach, so many lovely childhood memories from when we lived in Perranporth before moving to Truro. 
Driving home, I loved the shape of the new bridge against the sunset sky.

Ours too. It’s a good job I like making it as we get through quite a bit and family always have a jar to take back with them when they visit. 🙂

Thank you Judith, he has recovered well from that but we have other concerns now. Keeping this blog going helps us both to find the beautiful things, the positive things and keeps us smiling. You take care too, love Sally xxx
