Rain rain go away!

Okay I have to admit we have not had that much here in my village in Kent, we seem to get forgotten.  Just 10 minutes up the road and its torrential, here it will be blue skies!!! That said at night we tend to get a sprinkling of rain which had been lovely for the veggie patch, many meals of fresh peas and tiny carrots enjoyed so far, the runner beans are running up the canes displaying beautiful arrays of crimson jewels too.  Alas the chicken run looks like a swamp but the girls are enjoying it.

My quick blog today is just a reminder of 2 fabulous sites that I have mentioned many times and also list here on my blog.

Firstly, www.thegreenparent.co.uk  If you have not read the magazine go and get a copy or look on their site.  It is a wonderful magazine put of ideas, features, tips and trinkets of information.  This month we are loving the food special in my household, the fritatta being a huge hit. 

Secondly, www.nataliefee.com The most superb writer ever.  Natalie has a regular article in The Green Parent magazine too, but if you do not have a copy of her book The Everyday Alchemists Happiness Handbook - go and get a copy.  I found myself nodding my head and say yes, that's exactly it! An enjoyable read, uplifting, inspirational and a great personal toolbox to make you stop and think. 

Now that I appear to have a connection again, blogging will resume. Thank you to all the lovely messages I have had over the last month and as requested more home makes, bakes and wytchiness will feature.
