Well, tonight we weren’t in bed! We were just finishing dinner with our B&B guests when their daughter rang to alert us to the spectacular light show going on outside. The aurora borealis in all her glory…it was a first for me…it’s only taken 63 years!!!

Another wee troop of Hygrocybe coccinea (Scarlet Waxcap) in Eva’s meadow this morning.
According to Plantlife: saving wild plants Hygrocybe means ‘watery head’, these waxcaps are always very moist. Coccinea means bright red (as in the food colouring cochineal) .
They’re like wee jewels in the meadow and they thrive in unimproved grassland.

We love it when our guests write nice things in our Visitors Book when they leave but we especially love it when they gift special drawings. This time they feature Otto with some globe artichokes and Strega on the milking stand. Aren’t they great. We enjoyed having this delightful family from Germany to stay.

These are medlars from our medlar tree. They have to be laid out to let the ‘bletting’ begin. Bletting is a process that softens and sweetens medlar fruit, making it edible. I think we’ll have enough for a jar of jelly.
