After I retired from the NHS, I worked for a local charity Bedfordshire Rural Communities Charity and I used to cover several villages helping mainly elderly people to get the benefits they were entitled to and the care that they needed. The lady who gave me this was struggling with several health problems and I helped her apply for Attendance Allowance so that she could have someone in to help her. This lady rewarded me greatly by giving me a plant that was very small at the time but 4 years later is just a mass of flowers. It looks lovely in my conservatory and I think of her when I look at it. It's really come into its own at the moment as you can see from this photo.
I have had a brilliant morning sorting through the food cupboards in my kitchen and throwing away herbs and spices that were very out of date - some at the back to the cupboard were 25 years old! Shame on me. Anyway, the cupboards look really nice and tidy with everything sorted out so it has been very rewarding.
Thank you for getting yesterday's red kite on PP and for all your kind comments and Favs. It is always much appreciated.
This is a beautiful geranium, you've obviously taken good care of it.
I completely understand that good feeling when you've cleared out a food cupboard (or any cubboard) and thrown away the out of date stuff. Well done.
