Tales from northern England and beyond. Summer Chicks →. July 7, 2012. Now I get it. After reading all of Liz Curtis Higgs’. Novels and always trying to imagine “the gloaming” she would describe…well, I get it now. And I love it! 20:50 (8:50 pm) I’ve had to learn to tell 24-hour time here. An extra friendly cow. He was HUGE! 21:00-Flowers grow EVERYWHERE here. These, I can assure you, were not planted. They came up by seed. 21:25-Thank you God for this incredible sunset. View all posts by Em →. Especiall...

Tales from northern England and beyond. Newer posts →. March 1, 2012. Okay, so I know it’s March 1st, but these flowers have been here for almost the entire month of February and I just had to share them with you. They have come up everywhere! The sun usually peeks through the clouds almost every day–most days for a couple of hours and some days for just a few minutes. I love this climate! Oh, and one more interesting tid bit: the flower planters actually come back in the spring! I almost threw mine away...

Parmeggiano Reggiano & Dark Chocolate Balsamico. Mama Rita’s Tortillas & the Pueblo Chile Festival →. September 24, 2011. As summer fades each year, we like to look back on all the rosés we sampled during the season and choose a Rosé of the Year. This year, however, our favorite rosé experience was not a particular bottle — it was discovering and making rosé sangría. Talk about a crowd pleaser! Recipe by Emeril Lagasse, adapted by David P. Kunstle. 1 bottle chilled dry rosé. 4 medium to large oranges.

Tales from northern England and beyond. These are my stories of expat life in northern England and beyond. Forest of “Weeds”. August 15, 2012. As it turns out, a “weed” is a very relative term.

Tales from northern England and beyond. Forest of “Weeds” →. July 9, 2012. While Joel was out mowing the lawn a couple of weeks ago, our kind neighbor Ken. Ken has a special food for the chicks to eat starting on the day they hatched. The Sprout LOVED holding two of them. They were squirmy little things and one even jumped out of her hands. She’s so proud and she should be. They are beautiful! There they go. I didn’t believe that they would all fit! Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window). Fill i...

Forest of “Weeds” | Umbellico
https://umbellico.wordpress.com/2012/08/15/forest-of-weeds
Tales from northern England and beyond. Forest of “Weeds”. August 15, 2012. As it turns out, a “weed” is a very relative term. While most of us see a foxglove as a beautiful flower to admire and enjoy, there are others, particularly those who ride or care for horses, who see them as weeds. These anti-foxglovers, if you will, in fact, yank them out of the ground when they see them! I learned this from my friend Jenny, an avid equestrian, who saw my “ The Gloaming. I certainly did not. Sorry, Jenny. ;).
