Had a very pleasant Sunday morning sat in the warm (for a change) air watching the young man and his cricket team. Unfortunately, they lost. I didn't need any lunch because they had been cooking bacon butties in the club house, so I sat and embroidered what I hoped would flower in my garden this summer. Ive also made a very fattening Rhubarb and Strawberry fool for after tea. The Rhubarb is from my garden, and I stewed this with sliced strawberries and sugar to taste, then when it was cool, whisked it together with whipping cream. Ive topped it off with a bit of crumbled flake. Things taste so much better when you have grown them yourself.

Cricket, embroidery, rhubarb and strawberries - sounds like a lovely relaxing day.
Hi Diane, the weather has been nice but i am afraid it is starting to turn, we are due alot of rain apparently! heres hoping for sunshine for you for the week after:)
Hi Diane, that rhubarb and strawberry fool looks tempting. Rhubarb is for sale on alot of the hedge veges here at the moment so I have made a few crumbles and cobblers but now I'll have to whip up a fool for the kids as well. Thankyou for the idea.
