It’s felt like it’s taken ages for spring to actually arrive this year weather-wise and now it’s nearly summer, but here are some photos I’ve taken in the garden over the past few months.

5 Annoying Habits To Avoid When Writing Fiction
I’ve been writing fiction on and off since I was a teenager (back in the day I used to write fanfic) but I never took it seriously until a couple of years ago. Me? A writer? Nah. Wait, actually… I’ve still got a lot to learn but here are 5 annoying habits to avoid when writing fiction – mistakes I’ve found I’ve been making when looking back over chapters I’ve written from the past couple of years.
Recipe: Mandarin Loaf Cake
Hello everyone, I haven’t posted on my blog for a while but I’ve got another recipe to share with you all, a baking recipe to be exact, for a mandarin loaf cake which I baked earlier today.
Nature Themed Poetry
I’ve changed things up a bit on here this evening and removed the poetry page that was on here before, I figured it would be better putting my poems into a writing category instead so I’m going to share the poetry that was on that page, in this post.
Going Into Autumn
I haven’t posted anything garden related on here since spring so I thought it was about time I did a garden post for autumn. The leaves are changing colour but there are still plenty of flowers around in the garden.
Recipe: Plum Cakes
I’m back with another recipe today, this time some plum cakes topped with pink icing, marshmallows, chocolate curls and icing sugar.
Recipe: Strawberry Cakes With Clotted Cream
We had some strawberries that needed using up so I decided to bake some strawberry cakes, I thought strawberries and clotted cream would make a great combo for this time of year, especially since it was very nearly the start of summer when I baked these last week.
Wildlife In The Garden In The Evening
The weather is so lovely again this week so I decided to have my dinner outside in the garden this evening (bacon, fried bread, microwave chips, ketchup and cress if you were wondering), when a moth walked across the path not far from where I was sitting, so obviously I went inside to get my camera…
5 Goals For May 2020
I haven’t really been one for making lists of goals recently, I’m more likely to just write to do lists but Insecure Housewife‘s monthly goal blog posts have inspired me to make my own goals for this month. I’ve written them down in my journal and I’m going to share them on here too, so here they are – 5 goals for the month of May.
Spring In The Garden Part Two & New Plants
It’s actually National Gardening Week this week (run by the RHS) so what better time to update you with all the plants I’ve been planting in the garden over the past week or so. We actually got a lovely delivery of spring plants from Otter Garden Centre last week (it really made my week finding them online to buy!) it was like a mystery box style selection of plants with bulbs and compost… so here we are, new plants and a part two blog post of spring in the garden this year.
Flowering For Spring
It’s been over a month since I last posted anything on here but today I am back with another garden related blog post… this time full of flowers that are (or have been) flowering around the garden for spring (along with a few wildlife photos as well).
Artificial Plants Around My Room
I recently bought a few new artificial plants from Sainsbury’s to add to my room, so I thought I’d put a blog post together and share with you all the artificial plants and flowers that I’ve got in my room now.
