    One of my favourite ways of eating my sourdough bread when camping is buttered and cooked on the camp griddle. Yum. Toaster at home just doesn’t compare.

    Loved my breadmaker when we were boaters. It even once survived a near sinking disaster when the central line got caught in a lock. It bounced onto the floor and carried on baking!

    I dont know if anyone else has asked this but how can you manage an allottment if continiously cruising? Or do you have a permanent mooring?

    Honestly, bread toasted in a pan tastes so much better, I think. I really enjoyed this video 😊 For those tempted to try Aura, if you decide it’s not for you, make sure you cancel after the free trial period, or you’ll get charged. When I signed up for the free trial through another CZcamsr’s channel, that wasn’t clear, and I got charged for the whole year 🙄

    What a beautiful life you lead. You really are modelling living well with less. The allotment is going well - next year you’ll have another set of hands trying to ‘help’ you plant and forage! I hope you’ll also pick some elderberries to make a syrup for the colder months - little Jo is too young to take it, but since babies and small children seem to pick up all of the bugs going around and then pass them onto you by sneezing in your face, it’s a handy recipe to know - and a great use for some of the honey you’re collecting!

    How lovely to be able to eat outside. Joe is a gorgeous baby, I can’t help thinking you need a small playpen or baby relax chair to enable you to put Joe down safely, I’d be frightened of him falling off the sofa onto the floor. I’m going to try aura, I am presently using calm, as that helps me sleep as well as meditate too. Wow your garden is looking amazing! X
