Trees, Helping Hands and Goldenboots

23 Jan

There were lots of winter skeleton trees and some green Cypruses, all reflected in the glass wall of a building.  

 
It was such a delight to have help while making lunch today as  the oldest of our Live-Wires chopped the red peppers for our Chicken and Red Vegetable Stew.

  
Those of you who know me well will be able to imagine my delight when I saw this shop display of beautiful Goldenboots. You will also recognise my dismay when I realised that they were simply that, a display, and not for sale. I would so love a new pair of golden Docs!

Christmas Tree Hat, Lecture Lunch, and All Dressed Up

27 Nov

1   I finished, I think, the Christmas Tree hat for Grand-baby T. What do you think? Does it need more decoration, some sequins perhaps, some other coloured stitched baubles? Please advise!

2  I went with my good friend M to a lecture lunch at Trelissick today. The lunch was delicious, the lecture about Cornish customs at Christmas fascinating, and spending time with my friend just lovely.

3   Tonight I was all dressed up (best American long dress in green and black and my gold Doc Martens, the ones that gave rise to my nickname by the pupils at school of Goldenboots) and ready to go and it all went pear-shaped. The lovely Mr Smith stepped in and suggested we go out for a meal instead to take my mind off things so we did. We’ve just returned, all dressed up, and, as it turned out, we did have somewhere to go!
