We trust everyone and everything is fine and dandy!
Another week has past and we're in another month of lock down or so it looks like. You can never really be sure as to what's going on here ..for example the Thai's had put a ban on the sale of alcohol for the majority of April to deter people from gathering and then decided to extend it until the end of May, which was fair enough. 2 days into the extension, they changed their minds :-D It wasn't really an issue as we had a secret supplier 😁 but for some, it was like the end of the world

| Banana muffins :-D |
In my spare time, which I have lots of at the moment LOL I widened my culinary skills and made some Banana Muffins. They were delicious, definitely going to make those again. I know you'll all be disappointed but we didn't video my creation. You will just have to wait😉 until next time.

| Coffee & Vanilla exfoliating soap |
As well as baking I've been making :-D I made some homemade coffee and vanilla soap with some used coffee grounds that I had dried out in the sun. The soaps turned out well. I had to cool the mixture before pouring it into the molds in order to get this fabulous layer effect 😂
I know it's good as Simon tried one and complimented me on the fact that one side you can exfoliate with and the other, lather up :-D I was so surprised.
Apart from baking and making, I've been out for a cycle up to the reservoir. It's incredibly difficult to breath through the face mask at times as its 80% uphill but if there's no one around it slips down to my chin and then if I hear anyone coming, pop it back on again. The last few days have wet and cloudy, so perfect cycling weather and even less people about.
On my travel I picked some wild mint. Going to plant it and it might keep the mozzies

| Always hard at work |
Simon, is busy as always. He's currently moving (copying 11 years of blogs) to a different platform. Simon is one of the most productive people I know. He's always doing (perhaps it's just to get away from me😂 in these current times) very organised and doesn't like to waste time.
The picture below is Simon paddling back from Cuthbert after emptying the water out. The paddle boards that I bought of a friend of a friend have come in really handy and we've had a lot of fun on them and they're a good workout😁

Love to everyone!

Chat soon!
