Autumn Rain

The rain arrived, and somehow made being stuck inside more soothing (although not for everyone).

Work was a struggle again, but eventually the day was over and a pleasant few hours with my family. We had our first outdoor dumbbell session, and were inspired by Michael Palinin North Korea to consider a journey there when travel restrictions have passed. The Trials of Eric Olthwaite not so popular, despite the precipitation!

I used up the fennel, looking tired already in a delicious dish involving black rice, chicken stock, raisins and walnuts to accompany our steak.

One more day to the weekend! My husband doesn’t think a bike ride will be possible but I hope so.
