Daffodils

I should say dirty daffodils - they are rather mud splattered from the rain we have had. I was hoping to go out and take photos of the daffodils on the green, but it was so cold and the light was poor so I stayed home instead and when we did get a bit of sunshine this afternoon I took some photos of these small daffodils in my garden. Being so small they tend to get mud splattered every time it rains.

Ash Wednesday today and the start of Lent - I should try and give up chocolate for Lent but I know that is impossible so I am trying to eat only very dark chocolate in the belief that it is good for me! Actually, Lindt 85% cocoa is quite edible but interestingly while it has less sugar and carbohydrates than milk chocolate it has more fat. Though these days sugars are the bad ones, aren't they. When I was younger fats were to be avoided.

A day out in London tomorrow, and thankfully a sunny day is forecast.
