Helped a butterfly escape my greenhouse, I love butterflies and there are loads out and about now.
@EmeraldBitch in September 2021
Made beetroot juice with our own beets. If you are making beetroot juice, which is mega good for you, make sure you dilute it with another juice like apple juice. 4 apples to 1 beet, my husband got very sick for a day because he drank the beetroot juice straight.
My lovely lavender, the plan is to make my own essential oils.
Probably the last nice day of the year, but you never know, the weather in Ireland is unpredictable.
My rosemary plant and goji berry tree. My garden is really coming together now.
A little pumpkin I took early because it is super cute. A real little cinderella pumpkin. I wish I knew a way to preserve these forever.
One of the chickens at the farm, lovely little lady. We plan on getting our own chickens for our backgarden, hopefully before the end of next summer
Little tiny pumpkin sitting amongst giants, still as beautiful as the others maybe even more so. I wonder will someone carve him.
I found a big one in our pumpkin patch. I can't wait to harvest all our pumpkins next month π
I think God wanted this fly to resemble a leaf or twig. I think he looks very cool, never seen a fly like him before.
Another lovely day here in the west of Ireland, a little cold but nice enough to chill out in the garden, it is a little risky because there has been showers but I don't mind getting caught in the rain.
I was easily able to give up cigarettes with Allan Carr's easy way to quit smoking and its been around 9 maybe 10yrs since I smoked a cigarette, now I hope he can help me sort out my fat ass and addiction to chocolate and sweet things π€π»it's not a weight thing it's a health thing.
The weather in Ireland in so unpredictable, started out pouring rain and miserable, then by lunch warm and sunny followed by fog and rain, a little more sunny and now cold with a little drizzle. Some people have very short memories and are shocked by this weather every year but its nothing new it's just the Irish weather it's always been this way.
Dusk, I love this time of day, there is something magical about this time.
Another one of those Irish days where you experience all the seasons in one day... There was even hailstones at one stage today, I love the Irish weather.
Went to Cranny today to buy a eucalyptus tree, very pretty spot and the weather was very nice while we were here.
Tried making our own sugar free chocolate... It didn't really work out, I think we used too much cocao butter. We'll have to try again with a different recipe.
My new eucalyptus tree, smells beautiful and looks very cool. Have planned on getting one of these for awhile for a few reasons, 1 they look good 2 they are supposed to repel midges and 3 I've read that you can cut off a branch and hang it in your shower and when the steam from the shower hits the branch it releases eucalyptus into the air and it is supposed to be good for you.
