I had cut these flowers in the Thursday morning before the black cloud came.
They were from the garden, the rosemary scenting the kitchen.
It has been very good to catch up with the outside world and also to realise just how many friends I have.
There have been so many messages and so much concern for us both after our lives were turned upside down for those difficult days..
Thank you also to my friends who follow my blog for sending good wishes too.
Autumn has really come here now and as I write this the woodstove is keeping me lovely and warm.
Before I had to go to hospital I'd put all the fruit soaking in sherry for the Christmas cake.
Its been slightly more than the three days suggested !
Now I'm going to finish it off and let it bake slowly in the the oven for about four hours.
It is SO GOOD to be back - I am a very lucky person.
Glad your back, and getting beter daily. Take care.
ReplyDeleteI'm so glad your home, and cosy in front of the stove. Your cake sounds like it's going to be delicious. Take it easy and let your husband and friends spoil you. Best wishes Jude x
ReplyDeleteI am sooo glad that you are back home! You and your hubby must have been so frightened. Do you have to change your life style or are there any other things to watch out for?
ReplyDeleteI can just imagine how it felt to be back in your home and in your own bed.
Please take care of yourself and don't overdo.
Warm hugs, Evi
