The
sun is shining. I have a quiet morning. The Fox is cooking Jambalaya today. As
that requires rice I don’t even have to do as much as peel some spuds.
On
our way to the hospital on Wednesday we passed Ryelands Park. I always love
going along this road at this time of year. There are whole banks of snowdrops
all in flower. They then start to meld into banks of crocuses. At the moment
only the purple ones are opening out so far. Once they are over it will turn
into banks of golden daffodils. The rest of the year it is just rather boring
green grass.
I
wish our snowdrops & crocuses were as advanced. Ours are still just in bud.
More & more are appearing. As are the fresh green shoots of the daffodil
leaves. But so far no flowers are opening. We seem to be in a frost pocket
here. All the flowers seem to open later than everywhere else. Still they stay
in flower longer too usually so there are compensations.
