Yellow Kiwis and 2024 Retreats

24. March 2023

Here we are, right into spring, magnolia tree in full swing and the fruit trees just about to explode. It’s kiwi season here in France, which means vitamin C galore and pavlova. Very irresistible.

Also rhubarb from my old garden and a mental note that I’ll need to look out for a good spot to start the kitchen garden here at the chateau. So many lovely encounters these last days! Also so many really nice things happening, progress on the house, the garden in full bloom (I didn’t even faintly expect that we’ve inherited so many beautiful roses!!), lots of apero and basking in the sun, and vide-greniers season in full swing. Fab pentecost weekend and the weather is so nice that today still feels like a holiday, despite cleaning house and other rather worldly tasks. From last weekend, merci @boho_touch_massage_circle for the 📸! These magnificent roses grow rampant on the East wing wall, thanks to us having been a little negligent with cutting back (to be honest it’s a wilderness but then it’s also rather pretty) absolutely bonkers, some are almost as big as my head. Also the smell is divine, I suppose they’re very ancient! I made a bouquet for the entry hall so I get to smell their perfume all the time. Thursday = weekend around the corner!
