in the garden

It was rainy for most of yesterday but it cleared in the late afternoon. I wandered around my garden, looking at the progress of some seeds I planted and other things I had purchased and replanted and things are coming along. The Korean lilac is blooming and is a heady scent.


 I clipped some blossoms to make a small bouquet for the house. Wandering around between the plants,
peas

herb planter

giant aliums

potatoes

chard

spinach

I could smell the lilac and the lemony scent of the chicken wings baking in the oven (a Nigel Slater recipe - mustard, garlic, lemon juice, salt and pepper and I subbed maple syrup for the called for honey).
