Keeping busy and seeing friend

Had a fun day ‘video call baking’ with Anne for her birthday challenge Hot cross buns. Yum! Anne’s yeast seemed a bit of a dud, so we are going to have a take 2 before Easter. 

Also planted some seeds, mowed the lawn...

and Doug checked the bees and rotavated more space for the potatoes (not planted yet as frost forecast).
It was quite an exciting inspection as one hive has surprisingly replaced its queen. The new one seems to be laying, so hopefully all good.
The other hive has been queen less for a while, we gave them some eggs from the first hive and they seem to be creating a new queen as we hoped.

The resultant buns. Yum!

Vin d'orange and crisps


Happy Birthday (for tomorrow) Wee Anne, and have fun ‘video call camping’ xx
