Through my kitchen window in April

The view from my kitchen window is a little bit brighter than it has been in the last three months.  Still not much growth, but at least the sun is shining and it was a balmy 8C today!

I even managed to find some daffodils in flower, not on our road but about 1/2 a mile away.  I was on a mission to find some wild garlic which grows in the woods by a stream.

Some of it had been damaged by the snow, but I managed to gather enough new undamaged leaves to make some garlic butter.

No daisies to complete the poem yet though, maybe next week :-)

  3. I never thought of using wild garlic foe garlic butter. I must try that. My cooking repertoire has really improved since I "met" you. I have been trying lots of new recipes.

  5. Viv beat me to it, I was just about to say the same thing re garlic leaves, but not sure how to recognise wild garlic!
