Post Comment Love 1 - 3 December

Hello there, and welcome back to this week’s #PoCoLo - a friendly linky which I co-host with Suzanne, where you can link any blog post published in the last week. Please don’t link up posts which are older as they will be removed from the linky. We know you’ll find some great posts to read, and maybe some new-to-you blogs too, so do pop over and visit some of the posts linked, comment and share some of that love. If you were here last week it was great to have you along, if you’re new here this week we’re pleased you’ve joined us.

We had a action packed few days in London last week, seeing friends and family as well as celebrating our house move and eating and drinking very well. We also walked a lot, some thirty four and a half thousand steps across three days - but we also used the tube to get across town.

We even got to see the Christmas lights on Regent Street, which were as fabulous as ever!

I’m writing this post way in advance of its publication as we’ve had a day or two in London this week, and for once we really are travelling light. I’m also not expecting to have too much time online this week, as we’ve plenty on our ‘London list’. This includes seeing friends, socialising as well as some relaxing, pottering around the Big Smoke, and researching some items I’ve had my eye on, and no doubt a few I hadn’t even contemplated yet!

Last weekend I veered from my sourdough break baking ritual for the first time in a fair while, instead making this spelt bread. It turned out pretty well, even if I do say so myself, and it was nice to spend some time kneading the dough. Spelt bread needs a little more kneading to wake up the gluten, and perhaps I could have given it some more, but a little more than ten minutes seemed fine. It was only after I’d baked the bread that MOH asked if I’d noticed how clean the worktop was… oops! I was definitely, yes dear, I thought you’d done that so I could knead some bread. Just as well it tastes as good as it looks, hey?

It’s been a quieter week over here, but one with contrasting weather. We’ve had brilliant blue skies one day, to misty foggy mornings the next. And then it was a bit windy again! There’s most definitely a feeling that winter is closing in, but there’s also sunny spells which was good news for me as it gave me the opportunity to get out into my makeshift planting area to get some bulbs into pots, finally!

While I haven’t started my Christmas shopping yet - I think perhaps I should - I have started to think about festive plans, including making some cards. And my photo this week confirms that once again my cards will be tree-focussed, nothing new there then!

Have a good week.
