Happy St. David's Day!

Tomorrow of course is 1st March, St. David's Day. Celebrations in honour of our patron saint are going on all over Wales this weekend but there is surely no better place to celebrate than in St. Davids itself, with the magnificent cathedral (which stands on the site of the monastery founded by St. David himself and once a popular place of pilgrimage) and nearby St. Non's chapel where St. David is reputed to have been born circa 500AD.

There is plenty going on all over the county, including a cawl cooking championship and food and craft festival in Saundersfoot. Local pubs and restaurants have mouth-watering menus in honour of all things Welsh - Ruby will be dining on roast Welsh lamb with Pembrokeshire new potatoes tomorrow, and I need to stock up on tasty local leeks (Gate to Plate farm shop at Freystrop, near Haverfordwest, is my favourite.) Welsh cakes and bara brith will be doing the rounds too I hope! Little Welsh ladies will be out in force but i'm not so sure about Welsh rugby shirts after Friday night's performance against France.

Gwnewch y pethau bychain mewn bywyd (Do the little things in life: Saint David.)

Dydd gwyl Dewi hapus - Happy St. David's Day!
