You were perhaps expecting the monster holiday blog post? I’m sure it may yet come (too many photos to edit and look through!), but for now a little recipe, which […]

T always jokes (?) that he makes far too many decisions at work to have a strong opinion on what he wants for dinner at the end of a long […]

Current status: waiting in a 2 hour online shopping queue that T had the foresight to book a week ago when he couldn’t sleep at 3am. I think I had underestimated the amount we eat when all in the house! There are suddenly no leftovers for the freezer. Thankful for always having been a bit of a food waste nerd so yesterday we had smooshy banana bread made with discarded sourdough starter to fuel home school 💛 Also thankful (and hopeful) that flexibly working my 3 days over 5 will make this situation lighter on all of us.

Day 2 of home school and we joined in with @windsor_rainbows which seemed to be the optimal balance of interests between the 6 and 2 year old. I’m shattered! But somehow more relaxed now we have a clearer version of lockdown. How are you doing? #igerswindsor #stayhome

Today we found a field to get some socially-distanced fresh air in; but the reality is that all of the closures are funnelling people to the nearby parks. By the time we got back from our 8am walk yesterday it was impossible to stay >2m from everyone on the Long Walk in Windsor so I don’t think we’ll be visiting again for the foreseeable. I’ve been capturing a few video clips to remember these strangest of solitary times. I’d recommend one of @xantheb’s online courses if you fancy doing similar. X #igerswindsor

I think I need to channel all of my current anxiety into Pinteresting ideas to help with the pending ‘what on Earth am I going to do with 2 kids in the house for weeks on end’ situation. 😓 today we made daffodils and no one shouted at each other so there is hope! 💛

@naomiannedevlin’s trusty sourdough baguette recipe proved in my new banneton 😍 #glutenfreesourdough

Really pleased with my second @theassemblylineshop #talcufftop 💛 I used lovely light fabric from @seasaltcornwall which looks just as lovely un-ironed; and I almost love the inside more than the outside! 🧵 ✂️ #sewprettyinside

Daffodils again - taking my time over this top and binding all of the seams. As an extra little ‘easter egg’ the binding is upcycled from an old skirt with Wordsworth’s ‘I wandered lonely as a cloud’ printed on it 💛 #talcufftop #seasaltcornwallfabric

More daffodils - we broke our annual tradition of arriving at Valley Gardens either too early or too late for the carpet of daffodils and they were in their full glory yesterday! Photos can’t quite do justice to the sweeping bowl full of yellow; nor the absolutely mad magnolia trees dotted about! 💛 #igerswindsor #igersberkshire
