What a lovely beginning to the day , to be able to sit on the doorstep and eat breakfast.
It was the perfect day for hanging out washing, eating cake and painting beside the open door.

It took longer than I thought to finish this. I’m getting very fussy . It’s yet another scene from an ordinary street in Pisticci.
Then cake…..

What a lovely surprise it was when someone I painted a few years ago arrived at my door with cake. There wasn’t time for a coffee, but I’m still smiling about it. How cool is it when a kind person just arrives with cake …and a big smile.
It was a great day for washing. I think part of the pleasure is in getting clothes dried and sort of ironed (wind ) for free.

The wildflower garden, which isn’t, is looking lovely. There are now thistles, some poppies, lots of yellow flowers and various other plants. In a few weeks they’ll have died and then maybe I’ll tidy up. In the meantime I’ll enjoy them.


What a very pleasant Saturday and I noticed that the current episode of ” Have I got news for you” is up on youtube.
Time for wine.
Cheers🍷🍷
