School Christmas Fair

Our village school's Christmas Fair is on this Thursday eve.
The eldest pupils are in charge every year,but this year only two pupils - granddaughter Meleri and her friend Dion.

So I have been busy knitting little Xmas pud covers with Ferror Rocher inside to sell..

Massive rock

A massive rock that John dug up on our farm, it's on the yard now waiting for a new home!

Pumpkin face

My granddaughter Lois's carved pumpkin!!

My homegrown pumpkin!!

This Spring I got a pkt of pumpkin seeds,some I planted in our veggie pot.
Only 2 pumpkins survived the slugs and snails.

I might have better luck next year.

Loads of Blackberries

We have loads of blackberries on the farm this year,but not a single plum,and the apples are very small.

So have made some blackberry and apple jam,

Herman Sourdough

Yesterday I made a loaf from one portion of my sourdough,half gone already,very tasty.

This morning I made a cake from another portion,frozen half and we are now eating the rest.Ummy.

Trying out the New Baler

We have been very lucky in this part of Wales,we have missed the wet weather and floods.

John cut this field yesterday and baled  some nice silage today.
