Sunday 17th February.
Costco run this morning for essentials. In the afternoon I spent quite
some time in the garden doing some pruning- the buddleias in particular! The
garden is really coming along- sorrel is pushing through, the garlic and red
onions are looking healthy and strong- some lettuces have survived the snow-
the spinach looks a bit miserable though. Daffodils, primroses, bluebells are
growing well, there are fat buds on the Hydrangea, the variegated laurel, the
clematis armandeii and the peonies. I have so many broken pots- including those
I painted to remind me of the Marjorelle Gardens in Marrakesh, which house my
French tarragon and Moroccan mint. The greenhouse needs a clean and I must sort
through the seed packets!! Roast
pork for dinner with a mushroom and Madeira sauce with vegetables later on. Hopefully
we will get to talk to the children tonight on Skype.
