Project 52 2021 week 23
We’re rapidly approaching midsummer in a couple of weeks, and everyone was hoping for freedom day on the 21st. It’s looking like I will be proved right in that I said when it was first announced that there was no…

Non stop talking post lockdown
I don’t deny it, I am a talker. I always think I’m making up for lost time. Because when I was a child I was really quiet especially in school. People laugh nowadays when I say my reports used to…
Freezing veg and speeding up meal prep
If I can do anything to speed up meal prep while keeping foods fresh I will. Yes you can batch cook and prepare meals to freeze, which act like ready meals, but I don’t think the OH would appreciate them….
Buying from a milk vending machine
I’ve always liked milk but N has never been that keen. Well apart from age 1 to 2 when he used to drink a lot after moving from formula onto normal cows milk. But then we realised he had a…
Project 52 2021 week 22 – golfing
Another week and it’s almost at the end of half term. It’s been glorious weather all week, although I’ve mostly stayed out of it. It’s much cooler inside. Covid wise, Indian variant cases are causing an upturn, although so far,…

School days – May Year 5
This year is flying by, seemingly faster with every month that goes by. May was full of miserable weather, but school still managed to get through a lot. Thankfully N’s couple of sore throats and slightly raised tonsils, was just…
Project 52 2021 week 21 – view of the cross
This week has finally seen the end of the rain and start of the warmer weather. It’s needed for us and for the fields. Covid wise, cases are increasing thanks to hotspots and the Indian variant. Restrictions lifting in June…
Wasgij Destiny 9 Super Models puzzle solution
Like many people, my puzzling has slowed. I’m trying to sort out the back end of the blog, streamlining all the old photos that have flipped the wrong way, and been catching up on reading. So I’ve had less time…
Family days out in Cambridgeshire
Being able to go on days out is such a freedom, and one I love doing. For me it’s really important to show N there’s life off the farm, and children can learn so much from fun days out. Educational…
