Felices Fiestas!

White paper Christmas paper wheels strung up above with lights and with dried orange slices in between.

Tis the season...

A glass kimchi jar with a red top packed full of red cabbage sauerkraut. White tiles behind the jar

Red cabbage sauerkraut in the making. Used the two percent rule for the ferment 🤞

A variation on Duchamp's defaced mona lisa where the letters along the bottom now read, 'LGBTQ+

Claire Fontaine at mimosa house, London

A black and white drawing of three distorted cubes with a snaking linear ribbon variously tracing a path around and over these images of cuboids. The entire drawing made using a manual typewriter

An esoteric painting by ithell Colquhoun -three disks with interconnecting strands seemingly floating in a landscape of a hillside horizon with a dusk or dawn sky to the right

Colquhoun is a must see if you can at Tate Britain ♥️

A gravel path, heather either side. A very long view of the sea beyond, some islands and a tiny looking ferry heading towards the horizon in the distance

Farewell Scottish Highlands. Until then ♥️

The rounded humps of a mountain silhouetted in the distance. Lochan and trees in the foreground. Cloudy sky with some blue. Strong light from a lowish sun

Near Suilven in Assynt yesterday. September transitions in full swing as we race towards Alban Elfed in a week or so

A beach in the Scottish Highlands at sunset. A few clouds, the low sun reflected by the incoming tide, a low hill line in the distance. Orange and pale blue

Farewell summertime...

This is the week where the wheels of bureaucracy in academia begin to move more quickly here in the UK *sigh*

A calm reflective sea, boats, clouds and a blue sky paling towards the horizon. Hills in the background in silhouette but the furthest of them in sunshine as the sun slowly sets behind

Plockton dusk approaching

Cornflowers, Dandelion, Cowslips, Bog Myrtle. And the Heather. Purple prose written into the hills.

Looking over a camping stove, pot, and a water bottle from inside the awning of a tent with grass, dunes, a glimpse of beach and the sea beyond. A pale blue sky with ribbons of cloud

Boiling some water for morning camping coffee in bed

A massive Spanish chestnut tree with two boughs broken off on the ground in front, already chopped up a bit by a tree surgeon earlier. More trees behind and blue sky and cloud above

A massive Spanish chestnut tree with two boughs broken off on the ground in front, already chopped up a bit by a tree surgeon earlier. This is a close up of what has fallen to the tround. More trees behind

This 475 year old Spanish Chestnut tree in Strathpeffer lost two big boughs to Storm Floris a couple of weeks ago. Summer storms

Mirror pond swim this morning ♥️

August in Wester Ross. Dark and warm. Midges and bats.

A detail of a pile of logs photographed ends on. One end is sprayed orange with the word, 'larch' although it looks like, 'lurch'

YouTube video by Food with Chetna Introducing my favourite Gujarati snack - PALAK MUTHIYA!

Not this version. We followed a spinach muthiya recipe but replaced the spinach with sorrel from the garden -workedd a treat. (www.youtube.com/watch?v=HkCU...)

Wowza, storm Floris definitely blew a hoolie. Trees down, power down for 29 hours, internet down for 26 hours. Everything battered. Signs of the times.

Two pieces of an Indian snack called muthiya on a white plate with some crumbs around it. Seen in medium close up at an angle from above

Sorrel muthiya. Only two pieces left!
