昨日から３月ですね！雨ばかりとぼやいているうちに、今年も2ヶ月過ぎましたが今週は何日か良いお天気になりそうで嬉しいです。
March started yesterday! 2 months have gone while we were having rain after rain but it looks like we have quite a few sunny days ahead this week! Yay!
今日はとても良いお天気だったこともあり、急に思いついてRustington にある「Fig Cafe」というカフェにランチに行きました。良い景色の中、１５分くらいのドライブ。夫は、サワドートーストにスクランブルエッグとスモークサーモンと焼いたトマトをのせたもの、わたしはフムスとほうれん草のサンドイッチ。サンドイッチはパンを焼いて欲しいとお願いして快くOKをいただいたのですが、持ってきてくださったものは焼いていなかった（笑）ので焼いていただいている間に夫のランチの写真を撮って、自分のが来た時は写真を撮るのを忘れました（笑）。美味しくいただきました。
As it was lovely and sunny today we wanted to go out but we know the country walks are still very muddy so we just went to a cafe, “Fig Cafe” in Rustington. We enjoyed the lovely scenery for 15 minutes to get there. My husband had Scrambled Egg With Smoked Salmon & Grilled Tomatoes on Sourdough Toast. I had Humus & Spinach Sandwich but I asked if they could toast the bread and the staff kindly said they can – but when it arrived it wasn’t toasted. So, while they were toasting my sandwich, I took a photo of my husband’s lunch and forgot to take mine when it came. It was very nice.
ランチの後、本屋さんに行ってしばらくあれこれ本を見てから戻り、戻ってきてすぐに夫も一緒にお庭仕事をしました。ペンステモンを切り戻してやっとお庭がすっきりしました。バックガーデンにたくさん咲いているクロッカスはそろそろ終わりの様子ですが、ふと気づくと数日前には咲いていなかった水仙がたくさん咲いています。フロントガーデンの水仙はまだ蕾（実は１０月に何故かいくつか咲きました。）今日は良いお天気だったこともあり、冬の終わりということもあり、両隣の方達もやはりお庭仕事をされていました。
After lunch, we went into the bookshop nearby and spent a while there before coming back. As soon as we got back, we both did some gardening because there were a few things that needed doing. Now, we have cut back most of Penstemon (we got tired and left some) and the garden is looking a lot nicer. The crocuses look like they are going but suddenly narcissuses are flowering in the back garden. However, the narcissuses in the front garden are still in buds – though some of them actually flowered in October for some reason. The weather was lovely and it is end of winter so I guess many people have been waiting for some good weather to do gardening, our neighbours on both sides of us were also working in their gardens.
