First arrivals go to see the lambs

Daffs on the table – they will open in the warm barn


Good morning pretty lambs


Nigel waits beside another molehill

Then he pounces…..and emerges empty handed. Stay below Mrs Mole.

A striped sky above and a heavy frost below

Oh Nigel – please get down

Ok, settle in the kindling basket but not in front of the TV.

Spring?

A cooking morning at The Gables
Leek and potato soup

Egg mayonnaise

Boiled beetroots

Chopped and sprinkled with malt vinegar

And Jeremy’s bitingly sharp Chrain ( grated beetroot and horseradish with white vinegar and sugar).

While we cooked (separately- we don’t share cooking or shopping, ever!) the oil tanker delivered fuel

Then the wood merchant delivered logs for the wood burner (just off to help Jeremy stack them).

Sunny winter days can produce frosty winter nights

The lambs keep warm with mum and in the hay feeder.


Nigel waits patiently by a mole hill. Stay underground Mr Mole.
