Well, I never

Two miracles happened today, the first being that I used some produce from the garden. A whole 1lb of rhubarb from one of my two plants went into a rhubarb crumble cake I made this morning. Sadly, the eggs, sugar, butter and flour were provided by the shop, but I'm still pretty pleased to utilise something I have grown. The cake won't get any prizes for looks, but I'm hoping it is going to taste fine. The recipe by the way was from the nice Scottish tea room book my cousin Jennifer gave me for my birthday.

And the second miracle? It has rained after XXX days of drought. Not much, but I could hear it while I was in the bath and can see the wetness now that I am out of it. Altogether now: It will do a drop of good for the garden.
