FRAGILE FRIDAY!

Jenny was still feeling fragile this morning so we just did a short walk around our estate.  They are still building and we discovered for the first time how to get on to the area they have set aside for wildlife, with its large pond, pathways, grassland, hedgerows and areas newly planted with trees - mostly oak and beech.  A great place for children to play and dogs to walk. The sun rising and breaking through the mist looked spectacular and at the same time in another part of the sky the moon was still visible.

Our estate, Tadley Acres is built on Duchy Farmland so Prince Charles keeps a keen interest in its development and ensures that the housing is varied, mixed and has historical references in the choice of architecture.  There are trees, green spaces and even a structure for bats (see below bottom right)!

  
Jenny was talking about healthy eating in the last post. I do have a very good vegetarian diet, eating as much raw as I can - easier in Summer than Winter!  To help with this I have an organic veg box from Riverford delivered to the house every week.  It makes me eat things I wouldn't normally buy or sometimes have never seen before!  Luckily they provide plenty of recipes and suggestions on cooking methods.  It helps me get out my rut of eating the same things day after day!
