Our breadmaker blew up last year and so today Mal decided he would make his own bread. Probably better than the bread maker as we frequently had power cuts in the middle of it! So, he left the bread rising while we went shopping. Cyprus Today, the old news, newspaper!  Mmm, what a lovely smell, fresh bread baking!

After such a lovely day yesterday, I don’t know where the sun has gone today, getting ready for tomorrow’s storm forecast? It did appear at lunchtime when we had lunch outside.

Mal went to the fruit trees to do some more weeding and then called me down to look at some weird “plants” in the undergrowth. They are parasitic cytinus (parasitic to the Cistus (rock rose) .

I really love this time of year with all our meals outside. Meanwhile my sister has gone on a caravan holiday with my niece and family. I guess they are shivering! I have asked her to come and stay with us but she doesn’t feel ready for that yet. It’s got to be strange, 43 years married and now she is on her own, bless her.
