Past Times

Meanwhile on Instagram...

The great thing about travel in the UK is it allows you to appreciate the subtle differences in the season. Despite the stiff breeze, these crocus illustrate the more benign climate Pembrokeshire has had this year. I was told nearby Milford Haven has yet to experience frost and a single flake of snow. Driving over the border from Carmarthenshire I was greeted by a long ribbon of blackthorn in full blossom. Such sights to cheer the winter weary and a sunny day was perfect for a walk along the breakwater and explore a new to me town. #springiscoming #botanicalpickmeup #flowerstagram #crocus #winterwalk #seasideview #seasidetown #exploringwales #igerspembrokeshire #igerswales #visitwales #findyourepic #vegplotting #vegplottingblog

I never tire of this view across Bristol harbourside, especially on a bright sunny day when a winter's walk is needed to blow away the cobwebs. A great way to work up an appetite for lunch in Park Street afterwards 😊 #winterwalk #bristolharbour #paintedhouses #simplethingsmakemehappy #igersbristol #myhappymoments #dayswithfriends #breathoffreshair #vegplotting #vegplottingblog #livelifehappy

It seems that writing inspirational messages isn't just for duchesses, nor for bananas. Just like my recent trip to Oxford, Bristol had a little gem to discover hidden in plain sight 😊 #streets_storytelling #streetmessage #redcliffestreet #messageoftheday #spiritmessage #dailyinspiration #discoveredonmywalk #instamessage #igersbristol #vegplotting #vegplottingblog #nofilter

The florist outside Bristol Temple Meads station always has a cheerful display and it was her choice of stand which made me fish my camera out of my bag to take this photo. I have exactly the same thing in mind for my snowdrops... a sort of cross between the snowdrop display I saw at Chelsea Physic Garden a couple of years ago and the reality of my budget 😉 I'm currently potting up my special snowdrops and just have to find a suitable ladder... #snowdrops #wintergarden #botanicalpickmeup #winterstyle #upcycling #shabbychicstyle #simplethingsmakemehappy #vegplotting #vegplottingblog #igersbristol #floralinstallation #gdnbloggers #gardenideas #myinspiration

After yesterday's white, today is gloriously blue 😊 #windowview #birch #treesofinstagram #bluesky #weatherwatch #weekendmood #saturdaymood #chippenham #igerswiltshire #homeinspiration #nofiltersky #vegplotting #vegplottingblog

My friend said, "Shall we share or have a slice each?" There was no question in my mind seeing the hard-to-make-decision choices on offer. So we had a slice each AND shared: beetroot and ginger for me, and banana and peanut butter - the last mouthful you can see on the plate 😊 #cakesofinstagram #cakestyle #wappingwharf #mokoko #foodheaven #shareit #igersbristol #simplethingsmakemehappy #myhappymoments #vegplotting #vegplottingblog

Plenty of hoar frost on view in #mygardenrightnow! I love how it outlines the structure of the metal sculptures in the garden. #metalwork #hoarfrost #hoarymorning #instagarden #gardeninspiration #gardenlife #gardenart #myhappyplace #morningwalk #vegplotting #vegplottingblog #gdnbloggers #gardenblogger

Freshly opened this morning and beautifully highlighted by the sun, my Hippeastrum is in bloom at last. I delayed planting it as we were away over new year and the bulb was in such a sorry state when we came back... the stem was horizontal and a lemon colour. Luckily the bulb was still sound and looks like it's forgiven my negligence 😊 #bulb #flowerstagram #hippeastrum #notamarylis #botanicalpickmeup #windowsillgarden #windowsill #springiscoming #mygardentoday #mygardenrightnow #vegplotting #vegplottingblog #gdnbloggers

My version of Tom Kerridge's creamy butternut squash pasta bake from Fresh Start. A thumbs up from my usually squash resistant husband, yay! #100cookbooks #freshstart #butternutsquash #vegetarianfood #mysimplelife #healthyrecipes #vegplotting #vegplottingblog #nofilter
