Sometimes you just need to look up to see beauty
Lots of reading and gardening going on here. How to Grow Your Own Food is a fantastic book, guiding you through the year on a week by week basis – I’m hoping it will keep me on the straight and narrow with weeding and resowing things, I need reminders after the first enthusiasm (being displayed now) of the season has passed. It has lots of facts about wildlife too and vegan recipes at the end, very nice It has already inspired me to get digging in last years kitchen waste compost.
Low down on the veggie garden path – bits of green being glimpsed are chives, leaf beet, parsley, last years kale and brocolli (still producing shoots and small leaves for smoothies):
Loving Angels in my Hair too – a very refreshing and somehow innocent book about angels, wonderful feel to it and most fascinating by an Irish mystic. Another charming book for younger children weve reviewed recently is The White Snail – our review is here and the authors blog is here
Made some great nettle soup – do an onion and 5 garlic cloves in some oil, add half head of celery, 2 potatoes, cover with water, bring to boil and simmer til soft then add nettles, chives and parsley, stock cube, salt for a few minutes and blend.
Finished soup, very creamy due to vita-mix which we now have a whole page on and a collection of our blender recipes here
