Beautiful lines for the season Rhiannon. I haven't seen any celandines yet but lots of aconites out here with their little collars and of course all the primroses and daffodils blowing their trumpets, 'heralding the coming spring'. Perfect.

Love this, so unique. In the end there is always a new way to create but I can't help thinking of that ear, all half-pecked and covered in dirt.

Thanks for the cherries Insert. Unfortunately, the dust went everywhere, into orrfices, penetrating mucous membranes and causing a distortion of the status quo.

Posted on Mon, 21 Feb 2022
You've captured the violence of a storm, the cleansing effect and resulting sense of something changed, a new beginning, a metaphor for so much. I love 'winds whipping spume' and the solitary egret - creepy how they take off and silently fly.

That brought back memories, my mum had that book, I remember looking through it, and I've got the Oxfam Vegetarian Cookbook. I enjoyed reading this. Rhea getting so much comfort from Ebay trawling and flicking through recipe books, maybe filling...
