I can see clearly now

".......But isn't she lovely made from love"

......the rain has gone. - well temporarily.This morning we were graced with a few hours break  from the incessant rain. The sky was blue and I managed to get from the house to the kitchen garden without getting drenched.While I was there I noticed my prayers have been answered.My two daily "our favas" and "Hello Dollies" had paid off.This is one of the broad bean seeds I planted reaching out for some sunshine.In actual fact the entire crop is now bursting forth.Roll on spring....Perhaps Cinderella can finally escape from the kitchen and get to Apolonia to polish off her christmas food shopping?
