Yesterday we had a very springy walk for Deans birthday. What beautiful weather for a birthday! We took our time, meandering slowly with nowhere else to be, taking in the sights and the scents of spring.

Last summer on one of our morning walks, Mandy introduced me to a grove of rather amazing trees. After living in this valley for twenty two years I had never been to this spot and met these wild old characters. We visited them again last week and it was interesting to see them in winter without their covering of leaves.

A cinnamon bun to celebrate a personal win after a gorgeous session with Amanda Morley of The Non Nutrition Guide to Nutrition.

The first time I heard this phrase a while back, it made my ears prick up because I had a keen interest in nutrition after trying (mostly unsuccessfully) to fix my digestion and general well being through food for a long time! I could tell you a billion stories about how I have had a strained relationship with food and digestion, particularly with all things sweet for years and years and all the billions of things I've done to try to make my body feel better. I have gone round and round getting nowhere but more stuck and trapped by the many rules about what does and doesn't work for my body. Arghhhhh!
