Rare find..

Hi all..hope your all ok and enjoying this lovely warm weather.

Well today i had a rare find in this house..it has happened once or twice before but way in the distant past.
If you go up my stairs and turn right you will find a huge wicker laundry basket,now normally its full and over flowing but today it was empty!!!
I had to photograph for posterity...i just have to get through the vast mountain of ironing now..and i am sure it breeds..or someone is sneaking in and filling it up for me..i don't mind ironing..i listen to music whilst i am doing it and find it relaxing..i also like to see it all ironed and fresh..gives me a satisfying feeling.

I told you all about my husband growing a sweet potato vine in water..well look at this after only a week its growing really well..
Can you see the 2 roots coming down..i am going to update this weekly so you can see how its growing.
We had some lovely fresh radishes today from the allotment..these are the thinnings.
Icicle radishes.

My lovely DD Fionna and her husband to be popped in to see us..they are getting married later this year..it will be a good day.
I gave them a box of Bionicles for my little grandson Sam and my Grand-daughter Leah had a hairbrush set..it was a gift for my girls but they have very long hair and i have a paddle brush for their hair..
I decided to clean my silver candelabra ..it looked a bit tarnished. I actually got this out the bargain bin at an antique shop for £1..i love it..its battered and a bit wonky but cherished.
I did all the other little bits of silver at the same time..now they look gleaming.



I have started to keep my spring onions in water..a little thing i read somewhere..i change the water daily and so far they have lasted well.
At the moment i am reading through these books ..looking for ideas and tips on things ..i love them but my husband gets kinda nervous when i sit there reading them as he never knows what i am going to do next..bless him its good to keep him on his toes.
Beautiful books and i love reading them..

My neighbour popped around yesterday and gave us 2 bags of chicken crumb and layers pellets..i gave her some fresh eggs in return..unfortunately our big chicken Tulip died in the night..we spent the day yesterday trying to coax her out the shed but nope not having it..we buried her this morning..the other 2 chickens Violet and Primrose look a little lost so we will keep an eye on them..the tots were upset but accept that it's what happens sometimes.
Anyway thats me up to date so far..
Whats your week been like so far?
take care all
