Leg Continues

I'm currently struggling to bend my leg. It happens and will settle soonish. It's just currently a dratted nuisance. 

I had a delivery today full of fuel for bear. While it was delivered, I took this pic.

I just thought that it looked glorious. 

I've done all sorts of bits of things today, including some writing. As you know, I'm a fiend for research and when I was looking for a place name in Essex (I do a lot of research on Google maps), I found a company called Dragonfli. I haven't tested it or had any sort of contact, but I've saved it because it sells nematodes that prey on garden pests, including ladybirds. They had sold out of slug nematodes, but I'm thinking about the aphid countermeasures. I'm fairly sure that the ants on the rosebushes would stoutly defend their aphids, but it has to be worth a go, right? I feel more comfortable with that sort of pest control than I do with chemicals. If anyone has any opinions or information, please share. I know that I had really good results from the slug nematodes many years ago. 

I also made Cherie's microwave chocolate cake, recipe here. 

(I remembered how to insert video!!!). Mine wasn't as good as Cherie's, perhaps because I used self raising gluten free flour instead of plain flour and baking powder, and I perhaps could have put it in the microwave for 3.50 minutes instead of four minutes.

But it was incredibly tasty and the men have requested that we have it again. It was lovely and light, and a little crumbly. I can imagine having it warm with custard. 

Other than that, it's been wonderfully boring and I'm basking in it. 

Hugs and good health to all.
