I know I’ve like built a business and authored a book and moved my entire life to a new country and become a dual citizen and stuff but

I think making this blackberry apple crumble may be the most proud I’ve been ever.

Okay only slightly joking but honestly… I picked every blackberry from wild bramble bushes with my own hands. And got pricked by thorns and stung by nettles along the way. Then I rinsed them and removed every bug and spider one by one.

Then I picked the apples from a tree and removed the earworms and peeled and cored and chopped them and put those in.

And then all the flour and butter and sugar (ok I didn’t grind or churn those I bought them from the local shop and borrowed from my Airbnb hosts), which I crumbled with my own hands

and then baked it and served it with fresh vanilla ice cream OH MY WORD

Also felt very proud I did this whilst staying in a town I’ve never been in away from my home!

Had such a lovely chilled time with @georgirollings and @mrsl3 and their families. Felt like a celebration of summer as we move into autumn!

Jake: “why are you so obsessed with heather?”

Me: “because it only shows up like this once a year! And there are so many colours and styles! And it is beauty in the midst of wildness and barrenness! And it’s strong and hardy! And it adds a splash of colour! And it’s Scottish! And….”

Jake “ok ok! Regretting I asked” 😆😆

Seriously though, Scottish heather. One of my favourite plants ever. Shown here:

1. Glencoe Valley
2. Quiraing, Isle of Skye
3&4. Slighachan, Skye
5. on the Isle of Mull by the sea
6. Dumbledore’s final resting place
7. Glenfinnan viaduct
8&9, Clachaig Inn, Glencoe
10. Perth

One of the best reasons to travel round Scotland at the end of august and start of September! (That and the GLORIOUS sunshine we had which, I’m not gonna lie, actually made me wish for misty rain which we then got in abundance. You’re welcome.)

Wild swimming time!

I’ve been through Glencoe many a time but never stopped for a wild swim yet and today was the day! Bright sunshine (and getting super warm on even a short walk across the hills), so a dip in the cool highland water was exactly what we needed.

We found a little mini canyon where no one else happened to be so we had it all to ourselves! Always love that - some of the “highland hot spots” can get so crowded especially on a sunny day.

I’ll be going here again and hiking a bit further on a new trail we explored! 💪👏🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿✨

(Ps no I didn’t get my full mile of lap swimming in today tho 😆😆 it was tough to put my whole head underwater for more than a second or two even on a blazingly warm day!!)
