Nothing like gazing up at a Cedrus Deodara and getting your arms around it! A glorious day spent in @rbgedinburgh for their fundraising campaign to restore the historic palm houses.

A wild garlic walk. Turned a handful into a pesto

A wild garlic walk. Turned a handful into a pesto. Adapted a recipe from Homecooked:

100g wild garlic leaves, washed
50g whole skin-on almonds, toasted
50g hard cheese, grated
Zest of a lemon & juice from one half
Salt & pepper

Put all ingredients into a food processor & whiz, adding olive oil as it whizzes until you have the consistency you like.

I served a dollop of it on a bowl of veggie minestrone-style soup/stew. Bloody good it was too!

More wild garlic & spring-I inspired recipes in Homecooked. You can get a personalised copy for you or someone you love via the link in my bio.

Have a good week!

A moment of happy nostalgia! This slightly blurry

A moment of happy nostalgia! This slightly blurry photo of a photo recalls a very happy time in Africa way back in 1994.
The man in the white shirt is the man who had been brave enough to marry me two years previously.
The man who looks like he's hitting me on the head with a log is one of our oldest & dearest friends ( and he wasn't trying to kill me!)
And you may look at the man on my left in yellow & think he looks familiar. His name is Craig Foster. A remarkable human being back then and who since has inspired, delighted & informed millions with this Oscar winning film My Octopus Teacher.
It is rare we can ever drag him away from his beloved Kelp Forest, but he's coming to London to talk to me about his new book & his passion for the sea and what it can teach us. He will enchant you as he did all of us 30 years ago. The link to buy tickets is in my bio.

Easter walks. Rainbows, big views, even sunshine!

Easter walks. Rainbows, big views, even sunshine! And this morning my first wild garlic flowers & bluebells of the year. It may not feel like spring, but it's coming! Happy Easter.

After a busy full-on night in the lambing shed, in

After a busy full-on night in the lambing shed, in dismal very unsparing-like sleet, suddenly the skies cleared, the stars came out, followed by this bright & beautiful morning to blow the cobwebs away. Good morning!

Something rather lovely happened this morning. I

Something rather lovely happened this morning. I had a message from a charity I had never heard of called @coolearthaction They wanted to thank me for being the 'voice of the forest' for a documentary collaboration between #discovery & #genshinimpact who are joining forces to produce content to raise awareness of the importance of nature & healthy eco systems. You hope, when you get involved in projects like this, that they really will have a positive impact & generate funds for projects that will benefit us all. And to hear direct from one of the benefactors was a positive & uplifting start to the day! #teyvatdiscovery #genshin4good
