SUNDAY GREETING'S

Well I was quite surprised I noticed two little buds on my Geranium yesterday, so I put it in the shed for protection from the Frost. Nature's full of little surprises. We have had quite a lot of rain of late , so happy today it has stopped for the time being.

I hope you are all looking forward to Christmas , I have only managed to put up a small tree with twinkling lights and a Rose Garland. Yesterday I did a little food shop and came across a bottle of Chocolate wine. So I thought I would give it a try , being on special offer over the weekend. It's a Ruby Red Wine blended with chocolate and cherries. Something tasty to hand around friends visits. Shall be cooking mince (sweet) pies, chocolate cake and treacle slice during the next two weeks. I have a few friends to visit so will have some cake over a chat and a cuppa. I don't think you can beat freshly baked home made cakes to bring a smile :)

Well I hope this post finds you all well , Catch you Later and enjoy the changing Seasons. :) hope you all have a great week.

Cheeky Chappy and Buds in November.

Well Hello I do hope I find you all well and Happy, just been having trouble getting on Blogspot. So I thought I would try adding a post tonight.

Wile-e my darling greyhound some of you will have already met him, is just getting over a visit to the vets. It's ok nothing serious just a teeth clean and his nails needed clipping. When I picked him up (to be expected) he was not a happy boy at all. This was Thursday last he insisted on being miserable and giving me those (what did you do to me looks) mind you I suppose his poor mouth was feeling a little tender , as he wouldn't eat his biscuits for a few days. He just seemed to loose all of his sparkle and that cheeky personality had temporary left him. ....But at last yesterday he was back to his normal cheeky chappy self again and that was just great!! Oh I was Happy :) and I think he trusts me again as he jumped in the back seat of the car , I was worried that he would associate the car = vets , so I thought I would share this with you. Lets hope he doesn't have to go again , well not for a long time anyhow.

I hope you can find your way here as I have been signing anonymous comments, as it was the only way I could. Here are some of my plants hope you enjoy and I will catch you later, take care:) Have a lovely Week come rain or shine. :)

Warm September

Well it's been a while since my last post but Blogspot has almost lost my interest . By that I mean I can't leave comments unless I sign Annoymous , so please bare with me. Also friends can't get onto my posts, so I hope you can today.

September has been at it's warmest for over a week now, and for most of the Country. So lots of people are out enjoying themselves on our beautiful Coast line along Devon and Cornwall.

Getting back to the garden when the lawn has been mowed it looks like the above , so with the fine weather it's looking good . The holly bush is coming along nicely , crab apple tree and the remaining Hydrangea's are still a pretty blue. There has also been new arrivals on the pond as you can see which took me by surprise. But at least it has been warm for them , they are now be 3weeks old. It's been 3 weeks since my sisters visit which seems like a lot longer than that. It was great to have a lovely girlie time and we went out every day. As we won't see each other now for at least 10 months at least. Wile-e was very excited to see her and in his excitment (unknown to us) pulled all the stuffing out of his duvet. The room looked like a snow storm had hit it. Little Tinker we couldn't tell him off though we just laughed. :)

Friday is cake cooking day for me and I found a lovely little recipe for Little Lemon Puddings. It makes a nice change and they are very light , from the Victoria Sponge recipe. So I make about ten in my ramikins. I shall put the recipe on later today or tomorrow.

Till then bye for now and enjoy the warm sunshine while it's still here , catch you later. :)

Thank you...

Hello just to say thank you for my award so happy :) woppeeee
It's a rain on and off today here , so just taking a break on the puter.
I am looking forward to my sister visiting on Thursday for a few day's. Nothing quite like a girlie day or two out. We will probably have a couple of lunch's  and I will cook one of my specials.
Have a great day catch you later...Just off to bake one of my chocolate cakes. :)

PASTY YUMMY

Just in case some of you haven't seen a lovely Pasty made here in Cornwall.

Life and little Treat's ...

Hi everyone I hope you are all enjoying the Summer, although rain it must. Here is another picture of little Poppy my sister's dog. Getting back into the swing of things again sometimes it takes just that little bit longer.

But Wile- e and I just Love a stroll round our garden . I noticed a few days ago the black caterpillar gathering on the nettles which are always left , in the same area of the garden for these little fellows. They creep off somewhere safe and form a lovely little black chrysalis . I am not sure how long for exactly , and in turn you have the Peacock butterfly. Now isn't that just one of life's little miracle's.
Back to my Holiday at my sister's I don't know If I mentioned it , but she also has an African Grey Parrot. What A mimic quite incredible. Little Poppy below has put on a little weight since I last saw her. Well sis has a naughty habit of feeding her tit bits. Roly Poly was a regular word from Billie (the parrot) and many more besides , which had me in stitches oh soo funny quite entertaining I must say. I read in our local paper that Brat Pitt was filming here in nearby Falmouth , 60 miles from where I live . This being his latest blockbuster . So it was interesting to hear that the cast and crew where all enjoying our Cornish Pasty. 700 pasties where delivered to them to enjoy , made in the local factory in Falmouth . They then later had a further order of 500 sandwiches so that was indeed a busy day for all the staff concerned.Contributing you could say to the making of the film., to one of Hollywoods best known actor's. Yayeee..

Have a great Weekend although we have had a little drizzle the past two days looks to brighter as the weekend Approaches glad to say. :) Enjoy the little things in life it has got to bring a smile to your face :)
