The stick thing does make me laugh, and I must admit that when it is given to me to hold (as often happens if there is something to climb) then there is something strangely satisfying about swinging it alongside as I walk.

The coffin route emerges from the top of that lane where you park. Our route took us left at the bottom of the lane, over the little stone bridge and around the far side of the lake. As well as the hot chocolate stop I may have also bought some gingerbread on the way back to the car ;-)<br />I can't remember the last time I used a packet mix for baking but the brownies were very tasty. I would recommend them. The bread is a simple no knead, stock pot loaf. I make it quite often. it's delicious with soup.

Sometimes I think someone hasn't posted in ages, then I check, and for some reason the blog has dropped off my list.<br />Lily really loves being outdoors so we get out as often as we can and are fortunate to live in a beautiful area. Lots of fresh air and mud!<br />The brownies were delicious, even if a bit of a cheat.

We park in the lane that leads to the church , cross the road and go through the gap in the wall, over the little wooden bridge and walk the few yards to Rydal. It's so lovely, so peaceful. Grasmere is a delight and I always buy gingerbread from Sarah Nelson's. I made brownies today; I now want to make oozing caramel ones! I also made soda bread.....looks like perhaps you did too? Glad to read that you are feeling better. Enjoy the good weather now that it has arrived.

The strawberries were such a disappointment last year so I'm keeping my fingers crossed, as the few we did manage to eat were sweet and juicy. Spring cleaning? Well, domestic goddess I am most certainly not, but I'm a work in progress as well as the cleaning.

I always enjoy getting out walking with Lily and I'm dreading the day when it becomes 'boring' or she 'can't be bothered',lthough cycling seems to have taken over for now. Every day she asks to go out on her bike. <br />Lily enjoys baking but not anything that requires getting her hands messy. Funny that, as she doesn't appear to have the same problem with mud!
