It feels like we are in the depth of winter. Lots of open fires, red wine, cheese & pasta curled up on the sofa. We turn the sofa around to face the fire during the winter and to face the garden during the summer. Although we are hibernating inside, it is nice to bring the early blossom or bulbs inside. We have branches of this flowering quince that are gradually opening up, early cheer, snowdrops and daffodils. The daphne is a huge old bush that is about to burst out with flowers and a scent that will waft inside. I think we are going to bake some bread and make a ham hock, borlotti bean and pasta minestra with battuto lardo! Yum!!
