A sad start to the week as we lost one of our own…Sue Vincent who will and is already sorely missed… our condolences go out to her sons and grandchildren, Stewart and Ani who must be wondering where her 2 legs has gone…however Sue left her words… such a great legacy for us all… we will never forget and will keep her memory alive in our hearts and souls…R.I.P Sue Vincent…
Just in case you missed any or love to catch up like I do… snuggle deep be kind to yourselves get comfy in your favourite corner with your favourite drink tea/coffee or hot chocolate although depending on where in the world you live it could be a glass of wine…Cheers!

Fruity Friday…
In my garden my seeds and seedlings…an update.
My little seedlings which I planted in eggshells are going great getting bigger each day…a couple weeks and I can plant them out…I think using eggshells to grow seeds in is a wonderful idea. The calcium from eggshells is also welcome in garden soil, where it moderates soil acidity while providing nutrients for plants.
The shells also contain nitrogen, phosphorus and potassium which are most vital for healthy growth, calcium is also essential for building healthy “bones” aka the cell walls of a plant…win-win all round and no waste…
Fruity Friday..how does my garden grow…Chocolate Habaneros…
Saturday Snippets…
Of course, there was chocolate and more chocolate also a fascinating video on Sea Otters unlike seals and whales sea otters have no blubber to keep them warm which means they follow an intensive daily grooming ritual to keep their fur in tip-top condition and keep them warm…A fascinating look at Sea Otters and how vital they are to the eco system…
