New Beginnings

Today, the last day of February is cold, very wet with dull grey skies. I had planned to do some gardening today, but the weather has prevented this.

I have not written in my blog for many months, but plan to do so again. I will record the building work, which will be carried out this year, to bring our cottage into the twenty-first century. Tomorrow I shall restart my weight loss journey. I have already lost eleven kilos, but have plateaued ,so today I shall eat what I like; tomorrow is another day.

Meringues at Scotsdales


Today we went to Scotsdales Garden Centre, not to buy very much, but mainly for a look round. After lunch we made our purchases and before coming home we had coffee and a meringue. These are the peppermint ones, they are also available as cherry or raspberry. and are served with cream. As you would expect, they are gluten-free and made on the premises by Sarah.

Other purchases were made including some white Hellebores, pale yellow primroses as well as the bright and colourful variants. I also purchased a new pair of Aqua coloured 'Hotter' sandals; did I need  a new pair, no, but I liked them.
