Last Light In The Orchard

My goodness the farm looks pretty at this time of year. Particuarly in the early evening when the setting sun bathes the landscape in its golden light. Country Boy mentioned that some of the fruit trees in the orchard had a lot of small fruit on them, so we wandered down after dinner to take peek. Toby and Meg followed us and spent a happy half hour chasing each other through the rows of trees, while we examined our impending summer harvest (fingers crossed!). By the time we headed back up the hill to the house, the sun was setting and the air was getting cool. Love a little evening stroll!

We’re getting to the end of the summer break 😭. The kids have been staying up late, sleeping in, swimming and kayaking on the dam, reading and watching movies, and giving the LEGO a good run. I’ve been reading, sorting out things (it’s what I do in January), binge watching Netflix, and cooking. In the evenings I go for a walk and always arrive back to this view as the sun is setting. Also, I haven’t taken down the Christmas lights yet, and I probably won’t for a while longer because they are so pretty. Not ready for summer to end!

It’s been a busy old day around here. Washing be It’s been a busy old day around here. Washing bed linen, getting rid of the cobwebs that spring up so quickly. I even pulled everything out on the bathroom vanity and gave it a purge and deep clean. I have no idea how half the stuff got there 🤷‍♀️. For me January is a time to reset the house, de clutter and get sorted. Something about a new year perhaps? 🤔
Anyhow, here’s a pic of my freshly decobwebbed (totally a word) window  which makes me happy- just don’t look too closely!

The mulberry tree has begun to fruit so I whipped up this mulberry yoghurt cake. It’s delicious and easy. The mulberries go all jammy and the cake is soft and not too sweet. Perfect comfort food with a hot drink when it feels like the world has gone mad.
