The Changing Seasons – April and May 2021

My monthly round-up in The Changing Seasons post, hosted by Su at Zimmerbitch.

In April, I added 2 new books to my collection. Dishoom is a beautiful Indian cookbook with lots of delicious recipes, stories of how the restaurants came to be and a map of traditional cafes and restaurants in Bombay or Mumbai as it’s known now.

The second book is called 500 Walks with Writers, Artists and Musicians. You can embark on walks around the world and follow in the footsteps of famous writers, artists and musicians. For example, in the Mourne Mountains of Northern Ireland where “C.S Lewis found his Narnia.”

Time flies and as we sped through May, I treated myself to a lovely lavender plant which attracts bees to my balcony with its luscious smell..

Couldn’t resist this photo over the rooftops of the interesting cloud formation..

I’ll leave you with some motivational words from Bruce Lee..
