The weather has been lovely over the last few days, so we finally get to be outside in the garden. I could spend a fortune buying pretty flowers and plants. I have just bought a flowering thyme and some white Veronica, their flowers smell like vanilla and when it's warm the smell drifts though the house.
My mum bought me this Better Homes and Gardens book, which has some great retro pictures from the 1950's. Maybe I can get a few gardening tips...
We have been eating lots of salad from our veg plot, I can't wait too pick some French beans and Courgettes, they still have a while to go yet.
What nice things have you been up to in the sunshine?
I love this post! Lovely photographs and text. Gorgeous! :) I've been enjoying the sun during my lunch break!

ReplyDeleteSo lovely to be able to spend time outdoors, love the terracotta pots your pansies are in. I love old tatty pots, they have a lot of character. Lets hope the weather stays sunny it just makes you feel so much better. Jayne x
