#1530: Declaring the start of winter

This morning, after making a pot of chocolate chilli, I walked up the frosty hill behind my house to explore the oak trees at the top to see if there were any leaves left on them...

#1519: A gentle and cosy start to the day

I've been extra slow and quiet for the last week, but today I'm pleased to be here with an early morning podcast.

I've not been too well this last week and have also been finding the transition into my winter hibernation not as easy as I expected. Today though, I am feeling much more hibernatory as I try out a friend's idea to drink tea by candlelight. Maybe you'd like to join me?

#1518: An unplanned podcast

As part of my emerging hibernation routine I'm finding that I'm coming out to my gate at the end of the afternoon to breath some fresh air and get a little sun (if it's shining!)

Today, it was a particularly lovely afternoon and I found myself recording a (rather slow and ponderous) podcast...

#1516: Sweetcorn for Louise (and some thoughts on hibernating)

En route to my studio to set my timer for twenty minutes of crocheting, I pause to give Louise some sweetcorn and admire her lovey red comb.

It is a very rainy, autumnal day here in Wales and my thoughts are turning to hibernating...

PS Gloria did get her share of the sweetcorn a little later in the afternoon :)

The Go Gently Letter
