A good weekend

I know I so rarely update this blog anymore that it seems a bit out of the blue to talk about a good weekend, but you have to start somewhere.
Actually, oddly I was in a foul mood all weekend (the reason isn't odd , that's sleep deprivation, I mean it's odd that it was a good weekend), but we did a lot of different things, the weather was wonderful, and it felt like we got some of our old energy back. I think a lot of this s down to will making an extra effort to think of activities for us to do as I've been so ill and tired lately, and then that energy is contagious, isn't it.
We spent a fair bit of time out in the garden  though didn't really get that much done  just a few small jobs. I cut back the woody herbs and had so many that I made a wreath for the door. We are planning to buy a dehydrator this year and go into properly preserving our herbs, among other things. We did a little spring cleaning  though things don't look all that different thanks to the girls! I made an Easter present for family with dandelions, so we went around picking those in our and our neighbours'gardens which ivy lived  and I felt very proud that she knew the difference between dandelion and celandine  Will and ivy split some of the snowdrops and planted them by the stream for next year  I made an enormous banana cake with four black bananas that have been hanging around for too long. I feel like I'm getting the hang of gluten free baking now and have managed a few cakes without recipes (which I think have been better than recipes I've followed!)
We also find time
