Clematis, Apple Blossom and A Book

We have several Clematis around the garden and they are coming into flower.

Our family apple tree, the one with three different apples grafted onto one stem has blossom on one branch, the Lord Lambourne apples.

Lord Lambourne

A good friend lent us a book last Thursday saying it was a ‘must read.’ My goodness, he was right! I started reading on Friday evening and have done little else since. It is the most compelling read that both made me laugh and hold my breath in fear for the characters. As one of the comments on the back says, everyone should read this novel.

Tree Planting, Mini Muffins and Eggs

Our four ‘children’ bought us a Family Apple Tree for Christmas and today a very lovely friend planted it for us.  There are three varieties of apple grafted onto a semi-dwarf stock. You can find out more by clicking on the red link.

We had no treats in to go with coffee for our friends when the work was done so I quickly made some mini muffins in our air fryer that we got just before Christmas and which I am using for almost everything. I forgot to take a photo before we started on them. Being only a mouthful each, they didn’t last long.

Rhubarb and Blueberry muffins

Our friends brought us some beautiful eggs, a piece of art almost too good to eat – but they taste so good so will be our next few breakfasts.
