I try to make the most of this mini summer we are experiencing at the moment up here in Scotland…
…so me and Steven enjoyed a picnic in the garden before the sunset came around earlier today. He prepared the whole dinner and pretty much all I had to do is bring the daffodils on the table.
Even though it is sunny during the day, the temperature falls dramatically around sunset, leaving goosebumps all over my body. Hence, I felt utterly grateful when Steven brought me this fleece blanket to snuggle up while sipping wine and waiting for my food to arrive on the table. It is super soft and even though it is light to carry around and thin it holds so much heat, I actually didn’t have to wear a jacket for the next hour or so.
We had salmon/spinach pie with roasted potatoes and a huge salad.
It is so peaceful before the sunset; the birds are singing their melodic songs and the sky turns into a thousand different colours within minutes. Oh, the darling magic of nature!
Can we have more sunny days like this please?
