Candlemas Abstract

Today's the day to take down any remaining Christmas decorations. Candlemas, 2nd February, and the mid point between the winter solstice and vernal equinox.

Here's an abstract of the only remains of Christmas I could find lying around. Two fair trade chocolate pennies and two very chewy toffees of the kind that require strong teeth. See extra. Thanks to Ingeborg.

Dentist this morning - the appointment which was postponed on Monday when the dentist was under the weather. I have to go back next month. No chewy toffee for me.

The week's admin has piled up while I've been otherwise occupied. I must tackle it. Then I'm going outside to the garden to start the early prep.
