Restarting Adventure

With lifting restrictions and the start of better weather, some old favourites are starting to reopen. This week, Jupiter Artland opened its doors and we booked ourselves an Easter walk amongst the peices of artwork.

With news that the pool, which had been closed last year for refurbishment was open again, we were keen to check out a part of the site we hadn't seen before. Apparently they are hoping to open it for swimming sessions this summer - which I will admit, we're sorely tempted to do (unfortunately without Missy, I don't think she'll be allowed in the pool and, to be honest, the gently lapping water would probably be a version of hell for her as she hates water).

I won't lie, it was absolutely delightful to walk somewhere I hadn't stepped foot on in 6 months. The adventures are back up and running (scaled back, of course).

Asides from that, it's been a very busy little week. It was back to work on Monday (so many emails), a lot of various odd jobs that needed doing, and then yesterday we built ourselves a new greenhouse (polycarbonate, but a big improvment from the old one which was basically a tent!) so very excited as to what I manage to get growing this year.

From there, craft wise, its been pushing along with the usual big projects and also a bit of Easter themed baking.

White chocolate and mini egg fudge (and cream egg tiffin). First time making the fudge (super easy, here's the recipe) and I was very pleased with how it turned out, both visually and taste.

A short update today, we're making the most of celebrating the weekend to break the monotony of hubbies furlough. Don't eat all your chocolate at once!
