Weekend Fun

Friday was super hot so I did very little heavy work and despite the sunscreen, still turned pretty red. I ended the day in the Pub in Swinford to use the WiFi to call home. That night a couple friends of Lucie's came to spend the weekend working and exploring. Saturday morning I woke up late, helped find a gluten and dairy free option and helped with making the coconut flour pancake. Then I went to water the plants just after nine and enjoy a shower by the house. They have good showers in the building made for the stable hands back in the day.
Saturday was my day to cook and I made roasted (sautéed perhaps) vegetable with oyster mushrooms picked from the grounds around the house. (Graham told me where to find them.) There was also a guacamole with tomatoes and a bit of raw onion that was used as a spread for my fun veggie sandwiches. Unfortunately, we also had to add a bag of lentils in the end. For dinner I mixed rice with lentils, cooked up some more mushrooms, brocolli, onions and a handful of potato slices and then made a small amount of mashed potatoes. This time we has left-overs. I spent the whole day walking around barefoot and when I wasn't wondering in circles, I was cooking and preparing food to cook later. We ended up spending much of the night by the foreside making music followed by deep conversations. It was a really pleasant time and we were forming a stronger connection than we had previously.
Today, I got up late again, watered plants, biked to Lutterworth and bought some cravings of junk food, had a self made lunch, and wondered the property again. At 4, I checked the plants again and then started walking to the pub in Swinford to use WiFi to get in touch with people again.
