Taking it slowly ...

Venison casserole coming along nicely in slow cooker - experimenting with different flavours (lingonberry syrup) and have also added beetroot into the mix.

Have mainly been absorbed in family tree-ing: a hint on ancestry last night lead me to a new branch of my family. My third great grandfather had married after the death of his first wife and had a further 5 children and he had also emigrated from Ireland along with his sons form his first marriage, his second wife and their children.  

However I managed to drag myself away for a  short walk in Black Spout Woods which are less than a mile from house.
