Day Twenty-five

Another Saturday at the Lewisham Market. 
This is becoming a weekend tradition. 
We didn't plan on it on the way there but we ended up going grocery shopping. Then had to carry the heavy bags home and I thought my arms were going to fall off!  We took a bus home which happened to be completely packed and we had to stand. Trying to keep my balance and not fall on anyone while holding heavy groceries was tricky.  It was almost like a roller-coaster ride. 
This older couple was sitting down next to us and I was kind of giggling at the ridiculous situation; I think that's why the older lady kept smiling at me.  Niall was afraid to fall on them. 

Oh and by the way, it's been raining today!
(It's only rained twice in the three weeks I have been here)
It felt refreshing walking in the rain :) I'm loving it.

Niall decided to make some soup when we got home.
He's never made soup before. 
To be honest, I'm not crazy about soup so I was kinda nervous. Haha.

I took a peek and he had carrots and habaneros in the pan.
Hmmm...



Ok. So it doesn't exactly look pretty, and it doesn't help that a spilled it a bit when I was moving the bowl to take a photo.
BUT
It was the best soup I have ever had!!
Soooooo goooooooooooooooood
It was perfectly spicy and oh so very tasty.
I would have never guessed it was his first time making a soup from scratch.
Im a fan.

After, we headed out to the garden to feed the bird/squirrel feeder.
You can only get to the garden from our bedroom :)
I haven't gone out there at all. This was my first time.
I loved opening these doors and walking down the wet, mossy, stone steps.


Train tracks run right through the back.
We find it relaxing hearing the train pass by so often.

Oh look at that! I train happened to go by as we were checking out the area

I think the deck is calling out for a BBQ Party this summer ;)

When I first arrived, these were just weird looking buds. I thought they were some sort of onion.
Now the daffodils have bloomed!
So pretty huh?
The yellow is such a nice contrast to the gloomy English weather.
