Equinox Tide, Garden Blooms and A Visit

Yesterday we went to Falmouth for my flat walk and found the tide at Gylly Beach the lowest we have ever seen – the Equinox tide apparently.

Our glorious Indian Summer continues and there are lots of flowers still blooming in the garden, today October 1st.

Another lovely neighbour called in this afternoon for a chat and brought with her some fresh garden veggies and some homemade shortbread which was very lovely. We do have some very special neighbours and friends! Thank you all.

Gylly Beach, Pink Flower and Sarawak Laska

Today’s walk was along Cliff Road above Gylly Beach where there is a long flat walk which is what I need at the moment. The sea was quite choppy and, of course, beautiful!

Along the way was a small bush that may have been Lavatera but I am not sure as the flowers were much more blowsy than usual.

For Father’s Day earlier this year, the kids bought the lovely Mr S a subscription to The Spicery and tonight Daughter No 1 cooked Sarawak Laska which was absolutely delicious. The Spicery kits are brilliant! They come with all the spices needed, very clear instructions and a heat rating! I didn’t add the Sambal Balacan which was much hotter than suits me.
