Hello!
My day turned out completely different to plans! It was meant to be a wool shop outing with Ruby, Margie and Shirley, however Ruby remembered in the nick of time that her God-Daughters were coming over to celebrate an early birthday for her as they are away on the big day. So it was just Shirley and I frolicking about the wool shop making the most of a 30% sale.
We dropped in to Ruby to deliver a dessert that Shirley had made and accidentally crashed the party!!! I told Margie we weren’t staying (after-all, Ruby sees me all the time) and her face fell about a mile! So, being that both Shirley and I are not bound to schedules, we didn’t rush off! I am glad we stayed – lovely to meet more people from Ruby’s life and the stories were so funny and interesting
AND I DIDN’T HAVE MY CAMERA!! Sigh.
Anyway – onto today’s post!
I keep seeing facebooks ‘timehop’ or whatever they call it photos coming up and was surprised to see our plum trees much more advanced in the blossom department than what they are now. So I thought it might be interesting so see how everything was comparing.
AUGUST 2015
The Plum Trees
The photo below was taken exactly one year ago – the weather seems similar, but the blossoms are way ahead!
The Garden
I got keen early and put in snow pea seeds and tomato seeds (failure as usual on growing tomatoes from seed…)
As you know -the strawberry patch has changed a ‘little bit’
Weather?
The usual – rain, hail and shine!
Knitting
As you know right now I am obsessing with shawls, but here is what I was making a year ago
Have a great day!
Cheers
