I’ve had a little beaded ‘cap/beret/hat’ for many, many years. It was in the dressing up box when I was little and when ours were small but no longer has wearers so I took it down to the wonderful Make-A-Mends where all such wonders are welcomed.
We had friends round for supper last night and I made a delicious dish, Mediterranean Chicken with Lemon and Olives. Here it is, part cooked, as I added the vine tomatoes and olives to the part roasted chicken, new potatoes and lemon wedges. I served it with a mixed leaf salad and crusty bread and we finished with Eton Mess. 
The Cornish hedge between us and our neighbours is covered in wild flowers. Here the Red Campion and our purple clematis make good colour companions.
