Shag on a Boat, Strawberries and Colour Combination

1   Looking out from the Zed Shed where we were singing this morning, I noticed a Shag sunning himself on a dinghy in the estuary. He stayed there for over an hour!

2   Our first tiny wild strawberries are suddenly ready and they are so, so sweet!

3   I love the colour combination, quite serendipitous really, of the very dark Chocolate Cosmos (which really does smell of chocolate) with the violet blue of the Johnson’s Blue Geranium and the white and green of the daisies.

New Book, Garden Food and Little Legs

1    A good friend from choir writes for Cornwall Today about lovely walks in Cornwall and she has just had a book published! I bought my copy this morning after the Suitcases rehearsal and Sue autographed it for me. Now we have to go on all the walks! That’s our next challenge.

2   The few wild strawberries were found by Jake and devoured!
