I also tend to the over-excited end of the spectrum when the sun comes out because I know (as happened last year!) that early summer spell of sun might in fact comprise our full allocation of summer sun this year!! Sadly, I am hugely NOT a fan of bananas, so I won't be joining you for the breakfast cocktail :( I know - wasn’t it super exciting to have a mini-heatwave on the weekend??

We had someone keep a few hives here for a few years but I think the bees swarmed and became a real problem with all the kids so they stopped it. I miss that honey. Courtney, glad to be back. I can't resist cinnamon quills for infusing things, but am not a real powdered cinnamon fan. Thanks Kit. My mom always buys the Camphill yoghurt. Is that near you? Hope to see you in July!? Katie, good for you for the naked chef urge, and for resisiting temptation too. Enjoy the sunshine while it lasts Michelle, mint is a little invasive (a little!) but there are so many good uses for it. Not least Mojitos. I'm going to have to try the peanut butter because my daughter will love that. Chou, I thought it was just me... Marye, I'm not so much of a morning breakfast person. More a 4pm breakfast person, but this goes down easy. Thank you Lizet . I've missed everyone too and am looking forward to getting visiting again. Thanks Andrea.

That Yeo Valley yoghurt is a little bit of nostalgia for me, but our local Darling yoghurt here is just as good, so I might try whizzing up one of these for myself - I've never tried adding mint to the combination before. Glad you've got some sunshine now - save just a day or two for July for me! I’m so glad you’re back - I’ve been missing my dose of South African Somerset!
