Diamonds on a damp day



It’s a grey damp morning. But that’s not stopping the magpie scurrying across the lawn.

I’ve just been preparing for dinner. We’re having Little Bacon Flans today. All I’ve needed to do is peel some spuds for chips. I’ve also lined some Yorkshire pudding tins with pastry ready to fill this evening.

I went outside with the potato peelings for the compost bin. As I did so I was struck by an enormous web on the snowberry shrub. It was bejewelled with diamonds of moisture. It made the web quite magical enough to bring charm to, & to justify the dampness of the day.
