La flor de clemátide

Pequeños zarcillos delicados, como manos suaves

Alcanzando como en oración, arriba y arriba se expanden

Buscando la luz …

What to do with too many limes?

No more drinks till after Easter.

So make soup 😁

 

red pepper, kumara, chili, bacon, carrot, celery, beetroots,red onion, garlic, Cajun spice mix (MRE mix), veg stock, limes!

 

it made a spicy breakfast 👍

A fragment of the previous building on the facade of an otherwise unremarkable storehouse.

Dusk approaches the canal. I'm off to dinner.

Pillar boxes with GR on the door were made from 1910 to 1936 during the reign of King George V.

 

The man with the dog remarked that it was 'a bit damp today'. How I love English understatement.

Sysyphean, washed away at high tide.

Having washed and dried the fruit, slice off the ends so they can stand together in a crowd. It will save time during the rest of the process.

And the southern Fells in the distance. The whole place is a jewel of nature.

I was once told off for 'spreading marmalade like a subaltern.' Never worked it out!

My bread.

Asus shoot. Venezia Mestre railway station, sunset.

No call for artistic or technical proficiency, it would appear. Now converted to flats.

 

I especially like the jolly red bricks and the weather vane.

I'm one of those people who salutes magpies when I see them.

Padova train station, way to Venice. Sunrise.

Looking out to the Forest of Bowland Landscape, across the River Lune. It's green because of all the rain we've had. This area and the 5 acre meadow adjacent are part of a community-driven re-wilding project.

Elderberries getting ready for harvest.

This glass-filled grating covers somebody's cellar. It keeps the weather and people out, but allows the light to flow in.

 

The Rights of Light Act 1959 is a legal easement, which gives a property owner the right to enjoy the light passing over someone else's land and through their own 'defined apertures' (windows). The law goes back to the Ancient Lights Law under the rule of William IV, which was superseded by the 1832 Prescription Act.

Some harmless whimsy that made me smile.

Knautia macedonica, also known as Macedonian Scabious or Red Knight.

   

Colorful but not French cuisine

More androidography nonsense

Saint Edmund Arrowsmith SJ was a Jesuit priest who was executed after being convicted for being a Catholic Priest in Lancaster on 28 August 1628. He was canonized in 1970 and is included in the list of Forty English Catholic Martyrs.

This window is at Lancaster Cathedral.

Windows at the cathedral were mainly done by Shrigley & Hunt of Lancaster, and Hardman's of Birmingham. I don't know who made this one for certain.

This whole row is scheduled for demolition to allow the Eden Project to be built. I'll believe it when I see it.

Meanwhile, Morecambe seems to be tying its future to this development.

Have a zoom around this picture for some interesting details.

People take a break in the sunshine at the base of the Victoria Memorial

This is megalosaurus as they first thought it looked. We think differently today.

This really isn't good enough.

There are several British Standards that this footpath fails to meet.

Massive social care costs to councils means that there is little money left to maintain the streets.

This really isn't good enough!

Probably the safest place to walk as the bikes seem to ignore it.

Hawthorn berries are full of vitamin C, slightly tart with a flavor redolent of apples. Maybe I'll make a syrup.

A street in Weymouth, one summer. Sunny and colorful. Weymouth is steeped in history. The history of the town stretches back to the 12th century and includes roles in the spread of the Black Death, the settlement of the Americas and the development of Georgian architecture. It was a major departure point for the Normandy Landings during World War II.

 

In the summer of 1348, a ship arrived at the busy port of Weymouth. The crew was unaware that along with their goods the ship was carrying a deadly cargo: the Black Death. Within a few days, hundreds of men, women and children would be infected. Within a few months, around one-third of the population of England would be dead.

 

What a jolly history this seaside town has!

  

Cut an over ripe fig in half and place in a ramekin. Give a tiny drizzle of balsamic vinegar and honey. Microwave for less than a minute. Finish with Greek yogurt or crème fraiche.

 

Such was dessert last night.

More rain, so what to do? Make some pasta, of course!

I used some 00 flour, salt, egg, oil. Tried the pasta machine for the first time and it was a disaster! Some noodles worked, but the dough was too sticky and wrapped around the rollers. My friend tells me now to put it in the fridge for an hour or so.

If it's not timely, is it helpful?!

With all that being said, this was a banging lunch.
