Small pleasures

radishes oct 2009

I made a late sowing of radishes a few weeks ago and they have done really well, growing slowly into large tasty morsels of spiciness. Something to remember for next autumn…

I’m really struggling with the ME/CFS at the moment which is extremely frustrating, because there’s so much I want (and need) to do. Most of which has to be put aside while I regroup a little. So small pleasures like a few fresh radishes, seeing a robin in the garden for the first time in months, happy memories of another warm and sunny October 12th, a bunch of golden chrysanthemums and the arrival of Country Living magazine in the post take on a special intensity.

Appreciating such blessings doesn’t need much energy 🙂 .
