Vegetable soup with gnocchi.
Comforting and nutritious. Just how mother made it.
A glass of Sicilian rosato completed it all.
A room without plants is a dead space to me. So getting this pelargonium to do anything other than keel over has been a great satisfaction. The flowers just appeared overnight.
Re-potting all my plants a fortnight ago seems to be what they all wanted. The echevaria has done so well it produced 6 pups, which are now in troughs.
I don't have a garden and window-boxes appear to be verboten, so this will have to do.
Come September i shall return to harvest sloes from these jaw thorn bushes. They flavor gin wonderfully and if there are enough i will make some jam, too.
The sounds of the birds, trolling and war bling overhead, was so beautiful. When there are no predators nearby they go into full throated singing mode.
A Victorian wall box. Graffiti applied while paint still fresh. A pity really. It's not even interesting.
I discovered a branch of Wendy's during my trip to Blackpool. I'm not a fan of fast food, but the square patties and decent fries from Wendy's have always attracted me.
I thought Wendy's had gone out of business, but clearly I am wrong.
And the company logo is just charming!
Today I helped with the catering for a lady's 90th birthday tea. What a fabulous afternoon, full of laughter and smiles all around.
This posy was left on my counter top. What a gorgeous color is that rose!
My camera hasn't caught the real hue of this flower. I'd say IRL it is indigo.

A triangulation point, or trig point, consists of a concrete or stone pillar, typically around 1.2 meters high, with a brass plate on top. This plate, often called a "spider," has three arms and a central depression for mounting a surveying instrument like a theodolite. There should be a plug in the middle, to prevent ingress of dirt and water that could interfere with the theodolite - this one is missing (probably taken as a souvenir).
This old photographic shop has closed. Preston or Kendal are the closest places to go for supplies. or take a punt online. The modern way of business I guess.

The butterfly is one of the symbols for ADHD. Like many people with ADHD, I wonder if she is wondering what she is meant to be doing next. It is often a feeling that is so overwhelming that one ends up doing nothing at all.
Male catkins on an alder, snapped by the river.
The alder likes wet, boggy ground. It fixes nitrogen in the soil. Often described as a pioneer species.
The telephone exchange building of 1952. I love the masonry title on the building. Far nicer than a screen printed metal sign with peeling paint.
