Recycle washing machine drum

Hi everyone, here is a great way to make a raised bed.

Got the idea from Craftygardener.

The hardest part was getting the drum out of the washing machine. I believe it took some brute force!

At first I was going to leave the drum outdoors but as you can see in the next photos, I have taken it into my Greenhouse to use as a strawberry planter.

Strawberry’s planted are Lucy, Elsanty and Honeoye.

Strawberry plants all planted

Part 3 Winter Wonderland

Following on from my last blog earlier in the week, here we are with another delivery of snow to end the week. It started at 7am and never stopped.

And this morning I had a walk over Kirrie Hill and it was a beautiful Sunny Sky.

Part 2 of Winter Wonderland

Hi everyone. The country is experiencing a real cold snowy winter.

My last blog was Magical Morning Walk. A week later and we have had a lot more snow.

Many schools have been closed due to this weather and all of the birds are so so hungry and it is a a full time job keeping them fed.

Here are some of the snowy photos.

 

 

 

And under all this snow are my Spring bulbs starting to show.

And after all this snow we shall be cheered up with a splash of Spring colour again.

Cauliflower ,Celery & Leek soup

Easy Soup Recipel
  Hi all if you are looking for an easy quick pot of home made soup.

This is so quick to make and tasty.

A head of cauliflower florets.

2 leeks or 1 large one.

And 2 or 3 stalks of celery.

Chop the veggies and soften in oil I use Rapeseed oil bring to boil then blitz.

Enjoy.

Magical Morning Walk

Hello everyone, we had a heavy snow shower this morning.

So once the snow stopped I headed out on one of my daily walks.

Now come walk with me and enjoy the magic.

Over on the Trowels Forum, we have a snow photos thread. I’ve posted my latest shots here. Feel free to contribute your own to the thread!

An afternoon walk in Stonehaven

This afternoon we had a drive to Stonehaven then walked around the harbour.

With the colour of the sky it could look like  a summers day but it was a cold, frosty day and a bit slippery under foot.

Here are some photos.
