There has been some heavy things going on at home. I find spring walks always help me clear my mind and chase the blues away. I thought I would make a note of the fruit trees so I can go back and raid them to make some homemade goodies. I Spotted cherry blossoms. So I will be making cherry pies this summer

After lunch I took the children to the park. It was a lovely sunny day.

These are apple blossoms. They are so pretty and pink. Last autumn the children and I raided this tree. It remains a mystery to me why the neighbourhood children just walk past. I did apple butter and an apple and blackberry crumble  I even made an apple pie. It is such an achievment for me to be able to teach my children how to make things from scratch. Growing up in the caribbean I loved it , climbing trees was a particular favourite past time of mine. Out in nature feeling the sunshine on your face I could spend hours on end just doing that.

Spring is a great time  to brush away the darkness and cobwebs of the winter past to celebrate new beginnings ,rebirth and start again .
