Thankyou you from me Mare , I am just up ,opened card from daughter and son in law, first son will make a visit this afternoon, ,second son who is here for the time being is still asleep, not yet over Covid so first son won’t come
in .He has been unwell for some time but things are at last being sorted out .
A funny day it will be.
Mothering Sunday really. Always the fourth Sunday in Lent., the lead up to Easter.
It is a Religious day here really but Americans call it Mothers’ Day,
Whatever it is a nice gesture to Mothers.
In days of yore—— servant girls were as far as possible allowed home to see their mothers, taking a cake ,a fruit cake decorated with marzipan ,called a Simnel cake.
Symbolising the “ Mother Church “ really.
The price of flowers has shot up this weekend ,because of Mothering Sunday.
Well must get on,am trying to get to Church , I am so used to being alone I find it difficult to have someone here with me.
It will all work out .
An easy evening meal, I got a side of salmon ,but it will only be we two ,other son not coming in, so half frozen, just new potatoes,new. Peas and green beans and Hollandaise sauce..A lemon drizzle cake with cream .
I will have something of my mother’s on the table today ,she died in 1957,aged 61. I have flowers for her and got a little plant for the garden,Ceanothus ,a climbing one.
Hope everyone has a good day , we are so lucky to live where we do, not Russia or Ukraine.
Cheerio Viktoria.
