in which our plucky heroine acquires some greenery...
It had been my original intention to have some spider plants here, as they are durable resilient house plants that remind me of my younger days as well as adding a bit of life to the interior decorI decided after the kind response to my request last week for spider plant babies, that it would be a real treat to have a small collection of future spider plants from various friends of mine.
These two arrived this weekend from Karen Eccles and Elizabeth Mead, and are settling in to their new home. Soon the larger of the two will be potted into a hanging pot, and the smaller green and white stripey one will be potted into a windowsill pot

Started in on making marmalade for the year, whilst there are still an abundance of citrus in the shops. Made very small batch of Seville orange marmalade to start, and acquired some blood oranges for a second small batch. Since there are quite a few tangerines leftover from KASB, making "tangerine dream" jelly (combining tangerine with vanilla) seems like it would be fun, and a better-late-than-never response for the current monthly Mastery Challenge over on Food In Jars.
