runner beans etc....

 

the gals enjoying their treat

here are the gals munching their way through their early morning treat... 

chomp chomp, nearly all gone!

here's another pic showing how helpful they can be - they have been digging away to reveal a fine clump of horseradish! 

lots of juicy worms round here!  

 

 

Hen treats!

Good morning, a fine April morning

just been checking on the hens, 2 eggs already! usually after the pellets they get a treat - here's a pic. I can't resist a few sprouted seeds for myself - delicious ! I have been doing a sprouting seeds rota for a couple of weeks now and it's a great way to add fresh veg to their diet (and they adore them)

sprouted wheat grass, sunflower seeds and beansprouts!

Old Pine

this is one of the many spectacular trees along the dog-walking route. such a beautiful day, tiny moon in sky .....

ICY

ICY GOOD MORNING, 
hello, cold and icy and clear blue sky. I tried to take a pic of the white ice pattern on the car but it seemed to reflect the sky. However, there is a hint of the pattern showing - brrrrr...........

Potatoes !

just noticed this patterning around the potatoes as the water came to the boil !
the weather has been cold and I really needed a HOT DINNER so here's the potatoes cooking.
Sorry, no pic of the hot dinner  but it was YUMMY !

less darkness!

yes, there is finally less darkness! 
feet! I am able to get up earlier and to celebrate I thought I would soak my feet as my toenails have become troublesome. 
I have been walking for about an hour a day and I guess the walking boots have been pressing on my toes causing the problem. Although I feel fitter since the walking, my feet are complaining - so I will give them the attention they require otherwise the walking will have to stop.................
