Christmas Day is one week away and this is the time in my year when serious lists come into play. Lots of them. Most of them get left at home in the effort to get out of the door but just writing things down helps to lodge a few useful nuggets of information in the little grey cells. So today I am going to be trawling through lists I have already made, tweaking them and re-writing so that they make some sense and become useful over the next few days .

And this evening I am off to the panto, Peter Pan, in Edinburgh. Should be fun and a great start to Crimble.

Early morning light

There have been some cracking early morning skies this week. The sunrise has generated a strong rose gold light which has been picked up not only in the clouds but also through the silver-white grasses around the edge of the golf course. I always marvel at the clouds. Constantly changing, formations that have never been seen before, never to be seen again.

In a vase on Monday - colour

The intense colours in my vase this week come from nasturtiums, sweetpeas and a single glorious zinnia! Their beauty and love of life speak for themselves and need no further words from me! Enjoy!

(Not) in a vase on Monday!

The challenge this week, set by Cathy at https://ramblinginthegarden.wordpress.com to celebrate five years of In a Vase on Monday, was to offer (Not) in a vase on Monday! So here is my interpretation of that idea with one of my Plant Belles, which I tend to use for things I find and enjoy. I weave bits and pieces through the metal ribs and keep them until they fall apart, or something even better turns up! Lichen covered twigs, branches of larch with tiny cones, seed heads, twisted heather stems, anything and everything that has form and beauty.
