Terrace View

They say that if you can see the Pyrenees from Carcassonne it's going to be cold! Well it is, but I love this view on clear, crisp days like today

Home grown brocolli

It's still going strong - and looks like real brocolli!

At last...

More than a bit embarrassed to say that I have only just finished sorting through all the papers. Hmmm - I think I need a better filling system. But thank god I can see the table again!

Before...

The result of two (or maybe three) years of adopting the ostrich approach to admin and filing - tomorrow I hope to presnt the "after" photo

Bath time

they really hated me today...

Snow!

The view from my terrace this morning - the dogs were fascinated

If I didn't buy them for myself...

...nobody would.

Look at this little munchkin I met in town!

How cute?

The best creme fraiche

Bought in the market this morning - so thick and gloopy

We have guests

Dylan and Boo Boo - my friend Nathalie's dogs are staying with us for a few days while she is away. Boo Boo is one of Daisy's best friends but none of the dogs really knows little three month old Dylan. They are poppets

Happy New Year!

I used the first of my red cabbages for lunch! I think the slugs had got to the outer leaves before me but I'm so proud. I made braised red cabbage which was perfect with the roast belly pork. Back on the low carb wagon...
