Penryn River, Palm Flowers and Baby Tomatoes 

Singing overlooking the Penryn River is always a delight, this morning even more than usual.

Dracaena Palm, A New Cake and A Ginger Cat

1   Our Dracaena Palm is flowering again – very odd. It flowered in May and surprised us then as it was the first time in six years.

2   I am going to two shared lunches over the weekend and so decided to make cake. I made one Lemon Drizzle and then tried a Tangerine Loaf with Citrussy drizzle and it looks beautiful! Sadly, we can’t taste it until tomorrow! If it is a success the recipe will be published first as a Guest Post on Gobakeyourself, a fabulous foodie blog by a young Australian student, on November 14th. Then it will come on here – its name to be decided after tasting.

3   Coming back from town this afternoon, this rather shy and very beautiful ginger cat came to say Hello and left all too quickly for a proper photograph.

Falmouth, Dracaena Palm and Knitting

1   Falmouth from the water is another place! It’s lovely to see the world passing by and to see the prettily painted houses up the side of the hill. Click on any photo for detail.

 

2   We have been in this house for more than six years and this is the first year that the Dracaena Palm in the front garden is going to flower.

3   A friend who knows me well sent this little poster today. Knitting meter after meter for Wool Against Weapons as well as small things for the Grandchildren means that this is truer than ever!

Housework or knitting?

Housework or knitting? It’s a no brainer!

Thank you to Julia Marsh for these beautiful knitted cottages.
