The Very Hungry Caterpillar, Sunlit Lichen and Senegal

Sunlit Lichen

3 And to all my lovely readers, followers and commenters – We go away tomorrow to Senegal for Daniel and Ami’s Wedding so I don’t think I’ll be able to post 3 beautiful things every day. You can be sure I’ll be noting them down and will post extra pages when we get home. Please don’t desert me in my absence – I won’t be able to read your posts or comment either. Have a beautiful week or two and I’ll be back…………

Old Photograph, Beautiful Roasted Vegetables and ‘Tin’

22 Mar

1 I found a lovely old photograph of my little sister and her daughter today (more sorting!)

2 Delicious Roasted Vegetables with grilled Hallomi for supper tonight.

3 Went to see ‘Tin’ by Miracle Theatre, English Touring Opera, and local community choirs, tonight in the new theatre in Heartlands. It was thoroughly entertaining with lots of humour and some lovely music.

Mincepies, Mini Christmas and Silly Games.

21 Dec

Giving out the presents

1 I spent a busy and productive morning making mountains of mincepies of all sizes and many, many mini sausage rolls and cheesy whirls.

2 Our lovely eldest daughter has come home today to be with us just overnight so we’ve had a mini Christmas afternoon, exchanging presents. Jake made a splendid present deliverer. Dinner in Mikki’s honour was the wonderful Flemish Beef.

3 Just as we were finishing our meal, Daniel, our lovely son rang up from Barcelona. He’ll be in Senegal for Christmas with his fiancee, Ami. He must have heard the toast to him and Ami we had just made! We are about to sit around now with our mulled wine and play games, both grandchildren being safely tucked up.
