A helping hand...

I picked up my knitting tonight for the first time since winter, while I watched a movie.  A simple pattern that shouldn't have taken this long!  I had help tonight though.  Sort of.

Happy Easter

Two of the symbols of Easter - a candle and an egg.  Light and life.

Happy Easter everyone, wherever you are and whatever your beliefs.

Drain spotting

Sometimes a simple splash of colour in the most unexpected spot looks beautiful.   These flowers sprouting up near a lamppost and a drain makes a difference to the overall vista.

Mmmm!

Thursday night, long weekend about to start. Home-made Thai Green Curry - and look how clean my kitchen is.  Even I'm impressed!

Mighty Big Carrot

I have been quite proud of my carrot crop, only a few did get tangled and forked.  This one however, just grew very big.  The pump bottle is to give some perspective on size. It's going to be grated up and combined with cashews, apple and potato to make carrot & cashew nut soup... Probably for Good Friday's lunch!

Those magnificent men

...in their flying machines!?

Or flying platforms.  Not a job for someone who suffers from vertigo!

Suspended by crane, above the not so big HGC.

Mmmm!

Baking today, in readiness of having a houseful tomorrow!
