Wile-e's Day through his eye's ....

There is something about this new blanket I like, a good old ruffle up a bit of a chew maybe . Yes That's better , hope no one is watching ooops!! there's  mum with the camera. Out of all three beds this has got to be my favourite, so warm, oh and it doesn't seem to tear either. I remember when I pulled out all the stuffing in one of my beds, mum was not amused. My walk this morning was quite enjoyable but I must say very cold, but at least it wasn't raining, just don't like the stuff. Mum put on my wool coat oh what bliss and I feel so snazzy in it to. Off we trotted and guess what no sign of my little white terrier friend oh drat!! I did so want to make an impression but alas she was no where to be seen. 
Well off for a nap now , I think I heard her something about cakes?mmm sounds interesting. So me thinks I will go in the kitchen and do a bit of tidying , mum always manages to drop some on the floor.Lucky for me woof woof!!
Have a good day everyone and stay warm :) 

Images Over The Years

These are some of my favourite pictures from my garden over the past 10 years. 

Woke to a cold frost covered garden , the good thing about this it is surely followed by a crisp Sunny day. Which is uplifting in it's self , especially after all the dull wet day's we've had here in the South West. The Pond at the top of the garden was covered by a very thin layer of ice. I checked the smaller pond which in turn had also a thin layer. Just in case any frogs were resting there, and gently broke the ice. 


Wile-e has been very lively these last few days , looking through the window. So we have taken a few extra walks in the sunshine.Which is also good for me as well as for him.


I tried a new Cookie recipe over the weekend , so good I was very pleased with the results. Also a Black treacle pudding , this was also very good. Served with fresh dollop of cream. As soon as Wile-e got a wiff  of the Cookies , out he ran and was behind me in no time. I think it must be the butter he can smell. Turns a dogs head. Do you find the same thing Arlene maybe? 


Beth gave me the inspiration and got me moving to making  Cookies. They are so yummy , thanks Beth so glad I did.


Well Wile- e has at last settled down on his cosy bed. So I will catch up on my reading .
Have a great week and I hope the weather isn't too unkind to you. Catch you Later :) 

My Rose Garlands

Just thought you would like to see my Garland , which made a change from Christmas Lights.

Today it's HAIL STONE AND CHILLY here and it looks as though it's early evening , not afternoon. So today I'm going to make Chicken Tikka for dinner . I always said a curry is indeed a warming dish and a good feel factor.

I also have tried Mango for the first time over the weekend , I tell you I was very pleasantly surprised. So delish, makes a change from the usual peaches , or tangerines that we always buy this time of year.

The Kitchen awaits so I am off to cook my dish, letting it simmer slowly for 40 mins. Then letting it stand off the Hob, come evening a gentle warm through. Tasty , :)

Catch you Later have a great day.

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. :)
