How to
feel good in February…
With January behind us, we look forward to
spring – but it still seems a long way off, and with the wet windy weather and
continuation of dark nights, there doesn’t always seem much to look forward to…
UNTIL NOW!
Here
are ten things to brighten up your February…
1 Prepare
your garden borders for planting hardy annuals such as limnanthes,
convulvus tricolor and borage. Plant roses along with deciduous shrubs if there
is no frost or snow on the ground.
2 Celebrate
Chinese New Year by cooking a delicious stir fry of seasonal vegetables
3 Buy
some spring flowers such as tulips and daffodils
to bring colour and freshness to your home.
4
Choose a favourite winter walk near your home –
preferably with a great pub at the end of it to look forward to!
5 Have
a spring clear out – it’s amazing what clutter
can build up in your home after Christmas!
6 Buy
a bird table or feeder and gain pleasure from
watching the huge variety of wildlife enticed into your garden.
7 Make
an extra effort on Valentine’s day to prepare and
surprise your partner with a romantic meal!
8
Plant a pot of spring bulbs indoors and take pleasure from
their growth from green shoots to flowers
9 Make
pancakes on Shrove Tuesday and eat with sharp tangy
lemon juice and sugar while they’re still hot!!
10
Plan a trip away – whether it’s a summer beach holiday,
cruise, or city break - it will be something to look forward to as the days
lighten and the summer sun starts appearing!
Happy February!
