​11 April 2025 (Friday)

Richard was up before 6am, and brought me a cuppa… so I checked my emails in bed and answered the ones I could easily manage without being at my desk.

It turned out to be more of a desk work work morning than planned, and I only got to the plot to open the poly and check on whether recently sown seeds needed watering late morning, after 11am for sure.  I had an hour or so at my desk this afternoon for work work, and had then planned to sow some different parsley seeds at the plot - newer seeds as the last said to sow by 2019!!  I must get rid of really old, old seeds!

Anyway, instead of seed sowing a bath was needed, and had. 

After Richard's Live, we’re out for a quick supper, so no need to think about what to eat… and a bottle of white wine is already in the fridge and well chilled.


Recipe:  Pasta a la Martha Stewart

Weather:  Sunny from the start, and definitely  still very dry with no rain.  Hottest day of the year so far, hitting 24° apparently.

Breakfast:  Bran sticks, yogurt, banana, sultanas
Lunch:  Egg Mayonnaise, crackers, radish and cucumber
Supper:  Pasta a la Martha Stewart (apparently, though seen it done for so many years by others too and I believe originally a Puglian staple) - all cooked in the same pan.
