I too am amazed by how much you seem to do. Unfortunately (?) our dog doesn't get us up early and would be content to sleep until noon I'm sure, but I do agree that early rising so that the morning doesn't disappear is a good idea... if I could manage it a bit more often!

Some days are busy but other’s not so (the lazy days of lounging in the sun are the one’s I neglect to write about here!).

Luckily the dogs like to get us up early

i still have enough marmalade from last year but will try yours next year. last years orange jelly is rather good and low energy workwise as the halved oranges cook in muslin and then simply get taken out of the pan.

how do you pack so much into your day! must include much of the night. by the time i have prepared more veg beds, collected more donkey manure, sown or planted, watered, weeded, pruned, walked the dogs and prepared supper……i am cansada.
