Anniversary dessert. Black Forest gateau, with kirsch-infused cherries from godfather P’s orchard, bottled in 2010, so the flavour has evaporated slightly, but we like the thought. Happy anniversary to us. The Great Garden of Sleep. I cycle through Brompton Cemetery almost every day on my way to Regent’s Park but never managed to catch this light. Until this afternoon when I came back home early. The sun, breaking through the clouds to light up the Mediterranean border. Through Hyde Park to Regent’s Park this morning. Kew Gardens this morning as the sun lifts the frost. Ground mist rising in the heat of the morning sun in Capel Manor gardens, Enfield. One last look at the winter walk before closing up the house and head back to London yesterday. We’ve lost a few birches in the two years since planting up the new design, first because of summer droughts, then because of winter storms. But it’s held up well, all things considered, and although progress is incremental, it’s certainly noticeable. Enough of the birches have started bulking up, and in the bright morning light, the dogwood, grasses and ferns are positively glowing. Low winter light on the Loire this morning. Here’s to 2022 being as bright, hopeful and as filled with blue skies as this first day of the new year.
