Christmas isn’t cancelled, although it may feel very different in these ‘unprecedented’ times. The magic of Christmas can still be found in the twinkling lights reflected in the children’s eyes, the joy of giving presents to loved ones and the sharing of lovingly prepared meals with our nearest and dearest.

However you are spending Christmas, may you feel a sense of hope that 2021 will see us returning to near normal where we can share good times again.

I haven’t posted very much in the last few months. Hopefully next year I will be able to share photos of several trips we are hoping to take.

Have a lovely Christmas, however you are spending it, and here’s to a happier, healthier, safer New Year.

Cheers!

I feel guilty for not posting very much, after daily posts from India in late Feb and early March, but, like everyone, I’m not doing much worthy of posting at the moment.

Andy and I have been using our greenhouse and now have tomato, cucumber and pepper plants well established. We will have lots of salad in late summer. My pea shoots are ready to eat though.

I saw this suggested on TV one morning, grow dried peas (very cheap from the supermarket) and harvest the shoots within a couple of weeks. I love pea shoots in a salad so gave it a go. If you soak the peas overnight before planting they germinate very quickly.

Hope you and your families are all well.

Stay safe,

Carol

I hope you enjoy visiting my blog. There’s lots to look at.

I will start posting regular photos and updates when we are on holiday, starting with our visit to India with Great Rail Journeys at the end of this month.

Let me know what you think.
