Evening all. I'm off cake for a bit - about a month off running combined with too much food on holiday has made it a necessary sacrifice

Fell asleep on sofa, woke up, remembered I had to make packed lunches, started on that, then youngest fell out of bed! Now sitting with youngest while they go back to sleep.

Nice day, mammoth shop, some seed packets somehow fell into the trolley OH mowed front lawn, and I did a bit of weeding. Pooch off to the vet tomorrow for jabs and a check up.

Night night all....

Good evening.
We had a beautiful sunny day again today.
Went out for dinner this evening with our friends and then on to see Roy Orbison, the hologram show.
It was amazing with a fantastic orchestra.

Evening all. yet another day of April showers and a bit nippy out if truth be told. Possibility of frost tonight so the plants I've had out 24 hrs for a few days have been stuck under cover. Better safe than sorry.

Potted on some onions which doesn't sound like a lot of work but with compost to mix and plants to stake, it takes a fair bit of time. Also potted on a couple of dozen celery plants and hopefully I'll get some on the bench later in the year.

My resident blackbirds cost me three quid as I had to restock their suet with mealworm whatsits. I don't grudge it, it's lovely to see them in the garden.

I cleared a 5" square piece of ground, tiny innit , and planted up the twelve alchemilla mollis plants that had rooted there. There are hundreds of the little blighters. Had a look at fleabay. They are being sold on there for silly money especially since the self propagate like weeds. Not sure if I can be bothered.

time for my evening fly cup

Glad the cake was a success, Janie.

Beautiful day here in Co. Dublin - a bit breezy/chilly while out near the coast earlier, but absolutely scorching here in the back garden.

As a mild hayfever sufferer - the symptoms seemed to have jumped on me overnight, eyes are slightly stinging and my nose has been constantly dripping all day.

But, it's a doing day in the garden - despite my petty allergy.

Thanks to Snoop I made a perfect chocolate cake when I was in Spain earlier on in the week. We've left half of it in the freezer for when we go back. The villa belongs to a friend and is a tarted up animal shelter built out of a cave in a hill. I had to do some maths to work out the quantities and baked it in a ceramic dish. We found a shop in the nearest town owned by a chinese couple. A bit like a poundland except they didn't sell food. Their stock was absolutely amazing so when we go back I will buy stuff for the kitchen.

We went with the owner who has retained part of the villa for his personal use and the rest is let out to tourists.
