What can be simpler or more comforting than dipping toast 'soldiers' into a soft-boiled egg?
Today is the spring solstice in the northern hemisphere, marking the first day of spring. Happy Ostara to all my pagan friends. 🌱
My Pixel switches on a ' nightsight ' setting when the ambient light drops. This is the same view as the previous picture but choosing the nightsight setting.
If the phone is on a mount, it will also provide a night sky setting. nice for fireworks, star gazing and satellite counting.
Another example of a kissing gate, except this one has been decommissioned, after the fence had been moved to make way for the footpath.
A row of linden trees lines the pavement beside the police station in Lancaster (not Berlin - but I couldn't resist this title).

Most Thursdays I try to go somewhere out of the city. This week I took the bus to the pretty market town of Kirkby Lonsdale. Thursday is also the town's weekly market day - it got its market charter in 1227 for a weekly market and regular livestock fairs. It must be popular, as they are still running.
The strange arrangement of seats in front is to accommodate a wheelchair, if required. The suspension can be lowered to allow wheelchair users to get on and off without too much difficulty, and unassisted, if preferred.
The roads are narrow, and twist and turn as country roads often do, following ancient routes that follow old land boundaries - not designed for modern traffic. It slows things down, which is the right way to live. There are a lot of sheep and beef farms as we drive along, and all the animals were lying on the grass - rain isn't far away.

A peculiar bid emerged from the roots of my snake plant. So I broke it off and put it in a pot of soil a couple weeks ago. And here it is, growing and thriving.
After a hot day spent walking about quite a bit, what could be better than using up a few bits and pieces to make a chicken and spinach curry? That's rhetorical, by the way - I am sure there are many good things to do as the sun prepares to go down!
Having been out all day I return to find a) some fool has left the lights on and b) the daffodils have come out - how lovely!
I had a single, lonely onion, and nothing planned to do with it.
What to do? Let it decay on the shelf, and do no good?
Slice it, and make a simple pickle. It's better than anything you can buy.
'Valentine' is because of Carol Ann Duffy's poem of the same name:
I give you an onion.
Its fierce kiss will stay on your lips,
possessive and faithful
as we are,
for as long as we are.
For RCMM, who loves poetry as much as me.
La flor de clemátide
Pequeños zarcillos delicados, como manos suaves
Alcanzando como en oración, arriba y arriba se expanden
Buscando la luz …
