Our Christmas morning walk took us to Porthtowan where we love to watch the crazy Santa swimmers!

Life Affirming Sun, Sea and Food
We went to The Square at Porthleven to collect our “cook-at-home” meal for tonight – Pate, Confit Duck and Sticky Ginger Pud with Chantilly Cream. We were there around 4pm and so enjoyed seeing the crashing waves, the cold water swimmers, the surfers and the sunset. Then we came home and fixed our dinner following the instructions given to us. Enjoy the gallery.
Dinner was divine! Every course was delicious and full of flavour. We didn’t want our meal to end!
If you think the first and last courses look a bit small, bear in mind that we shared them, all three courses being too much for us!
Copper Beech, Tree Peony and Porthleven

2 This Tree Peony that we found in a nursery in The Lizard has flowers of about 6″ across- quite remarkable and very beautiful.

3 Porthleven was a windy spot this afternoon but the sea in the harbour was such a beautiful colour. It was less windy by the beach but it was still deserted.
