Outdoor water toys

I've just made a new lens Outdoor water toys for kids.
It should work well alongside my Swings and swing sets lens.

I'll be coming back to add to this ready for the summer.

Herbs are my obsession just now.

I've spent ages trying to rescue the bay tree that had severe frost damage over the winter. I'll have to make a lens about it- meanwhile, you can read more on my Notes from a Lake District Garden blog.

Right now the Lovage and sorell are growing really well in the garden, and the lenses I wrote about both of these are also up in the 3,000 in lensrank. The problem is thought, that sales from these lenses of a pack of seeds or a few herbs, is never going to make me a fortune! Ah well!

If you love herbs as much as me, you'll love Jekka's herb books- I've picked on out here.

The Royal Family are top of the pops

Since the Royal Wedding my lenses about Kate's Style,  Kate's wedding dress, and my brand new lens The Duchess of Cambridge have gone down a storm.
I think the imminent visit of the Royal Couple to Canada and the USA will keep them in the spotlight too.
Here's hoping for a couple of high ranking lenses for a while!

What's whitemoss doing on Squidoo?

The answer is- sprucing up her old lenses for the spring and summer.
My Easter biscuits and Easter cookies has been up in tier 1, but might not make it for the month as a whole. I need to work on this next year.
I've not had time to make any new lenses, but I'm going round making the topical lenses such as my herb garden lenses, more up to date and generally freshen things up. It's time to think about the garden now.
Also, with tourists flocking into my home area, I'm revisiting my lenses about Wordsworth's Lake District.
Hopefully I'll be back to make new lenses soon when things ease up in other directions.

Easter Recipes

I've added more links for top Easter recipes to my Easter cookies and Easter Biscuits recipe page.
Hope you enjoy them!

I'm working on updating my lenses.

I'm a little short on time right now, and new lenses will have to wait. However, I'm working hard on freshening up all of the leneses that are becoming topical.
These include my Herb Garden lenses, my Royal Wedding lenses and my Easter lenses.

My Easter Cookies and Easter biscuits recipe lens is climbing. Take a look if you'd like to try and easy traditional recipe that also makes a great gift.

This herb garden book is one of my favourites.You can buy it in the UK too.

Regional Food- my Squid Angel Neighborhood.

I've been asked to look after Regional Foods for Squidoo, as a neighborhood angel.
I've just set out on this task, and here is the link to my Squid Angel lens on The Best of Regional Foods.
It's going to be growing daily. Please bookmark and leave messages!

This Jamie Oliver book about Italy is my #1 favourite Regional Foods book.
