First and Last Rhubarb

 Just a quick post scheduled today............

After taking the topless and bottomless old rusty dustbin to the tip, there was then nothing to force the rhubarb this year so I wasn't expecting to eat any before moving . But it looked nice and pink so I pulled a few bits and made a Lazy Fool in a Jug. ...Twice......Delicious.


A small clump of rhubarb is sitting in a bucket at BiL's house ready to plant out at the new bungalow as soon as possible. I don't want to be without the first-crop-of-the-year treat.

Today is my last full day here, lots of last minute stuff to pack and load into the car. Tomorrow the removal men come to take everything to storage and on Wednesday I hand over the keys. I'll be back after settling into the holiday let - provided I can get the internet to connect!

 Back ASAP
Sue

  3. That rhubarb looks so good. Something I need to plant here (hope it enjoys building rubble!) Good luck with transplanting to the holiday cottage.

  4. Internet connections are usually good in holiday lets, the owners reputation is at stake, reviews and all that. Have fun. I assumed you would be doing this move at leisure with your keys for a few days. At least you aren't going to be one out one in on the same day.

  15. All the very best to you! We move on Friday after 6 months of yes, no, yes, no - so now it's a mad oven cleaning, window washing, carpet scrubbing last few days! Ours is a massive downsize move so have had to be ruthless about getting shot of "stuff" which has been very cathartic.
