A Wonderful Spring Day

After 24 hours of rain it was wonderful to awaken to sunshine this morning.  I actually went out in the garden for short periods.  Still haven't shaken the virus off but sunshine makes everything seem better.

I got a load of washing done and dried and some mats from the porch that got wet with the rain driving in are almost dry so it was a good day all round.







Spring flowers are coming out and, once I get better, there will be a lovely cauliflower to eat.  I bought a pack of baby vegie plants - had a couple of Italian Brocolli that didn't seem particularly small and now this delightful cauli.

Have been watching the Tuis in the Australian Frangipane Tree - the tree is huge - I have never seen one as big - so it is great for the birds out of harms way of cats.

  1. That Cauli looks really good; I think I'd eat all the leaves too!

  5. I love the first image of your Cistus, wonderful little shrubs, and the cauliflower will give you lots of vitamin C to help you fight off the virus.

  6. I am hoping to feel better soon and be able to eat that cauli. On a bland diet at present!!! That cistus only came out yesterday. Another nice day today but rain forecast tomorrow. Finally going to G.P. tomorrow if I can get in - want to make sure I am O.K. before going to the Rest Home.

  7. Sorry to hear you've been ill, Susan. Glad you're feeling better and the weather is improving. What is it with all this rain everywhere? I'm having broadband problems - hence my recent absence.
