Rainy June Saturday

Walking in the rain with Kitty this morning (let's go on the golf-course! Why not, no-one else will be there), and the wet scent of elderflowers...

I always think of the summer I made fizzy elderflower...we left it a couple of weeks while we went on holiday. And then, one hot afternoon, the girls and I drank quite a lot of it. 

We were very relaxed and not a little giggly when Alistair got home from work...

Things to do on wet, windy June afternoons...make a batch of recycled candles - random, messy (oh SO messy!) And ultimately satisfying if only because something useful and vaguely beautiful appears from a bagful of candle-stubs and tea-light scraps from Taraloka...
