Heavenly hellebore

These hellebores grow like weeds in our garden. I'm glad, as I really like them! There aren't many flowers at the moment, so I was glad to be able to bring these in for a little jug that number 1 peanut brought me from Dedze (if that's not the right spelling I'm sure someone will correct me) pottery in Malawi.

I made spiced cauliflower and coconut soup today which the Ards Man deemed "all right". Faint praise or what? I liked it, apart from the fact that I burnt my tongue on the second spoonful :(
