Lightly smoked

1) I realised this morning that we hadn't seen yesterday's post, and the discovered that it included my bulbs, so I've planted them out, intermixed with clumps of incredibly pot-bound inherited chives: hopefully that should give some degree of year-long cover!
2) We had a go at a bonfire today, because the grass was still damp. As I expected, the recently-pruned tree bits were still too green to go up, but at least the pile is now less bulky (with the leaves and such being gone). I did point out that we had a car with lots of petrol inside it, but Mike demurred.
3) I made marshmallows this afternoon, as well. Well, I hope that I did: I was slightly puzzled by how quickly the mix whisked up, and then noticed that it had a very odd, granular texture as I started to tip it out.... Then I noticed the bowl of gelatine mix sitting on the table! Oops. Back in the mixer bowl it (all) went. It looked right as I was (again) pouring it out to set, so we'll see what happens! |
