Planting flowers, foraging and brewing

We have two elderberry ports and elderberry wine on the go at the moment, I will be brewing another elderberry wine this morning and we will be transferring the other wine in to a demijohn tonight, it is all very exciting. I was planting some flowers for my nan yesterday, I do her garden once a week and it brings me great pleasure, although I know almost nothing about flowers being out side brings the best into me, I love being in nature, touching looking, smelling. My nan who we have called dee dee before I was even around, also feeds me and my fiance up to the max, pies, fruit, cakes it is quite phenomenal. After that Brandon and I did some more foraging, we got caught in the rain and went under some trees for a little shelter, it is beautiful looking across the fields at the rain pouring down. We were in Lacock again and got a substantial amount of blackberries and elderberries, we then arrived back at my mums starving ready to wolf down her bacon and cheese flan, garden peas and potato waffles followed by my little sister Beth's delicious forked biscuits. All in all it was a fantastic day, although Brandon does seem to be showing a few flu like symptoms, we are praying it doesn't come to anything, we are off to Glastonbury tomorrow to a mind, body, spirit fare to sell fair trade products from India such as bags, it is all to do with a company called Freeset who give women prostitutes a chance to earn as much money by making bags and clothes. So we will be staying the weeks end in Brandon's van with our friend Helen, hopefully Brandon won't be suffering while we are there.
