What made you smile today?

[Candy]

No I'm not convinced I'll give it a miss. I nearly had to eat one once at a wedding, but luckily one of my beastly cousins ate it for me. He so nice you just have to excuse him and his accidentally setting fire to tractor habit.

His whaaat?!

 

[SwampDonkey]

Mmmmm he's a colourful character

Steak is a staple in this house. Easy to chuck in the pan and have with salad or roasted veg
Sophie is a right carnivore.
Mind you, dogs don't get a look in.
Tonight I was making Kate's Cornish pasties

Erm.......must admit I have a soft spot for colourful characters, but more of the variety.

 

[SwampDonkey]

Oh we have plenty of them too

 

[Candy]

And here, I'm happy to report! Spending time with some of them over the next few days. Looking forward to it!

Once again the wind is howling, the rain is lashing against the windows and I really should be off to bed. I treated myself to these beautiful white tulips today though. They were in tight bud when I put them in the vase but over the course of the evening they've been opening in the warmth from the stove and they're making me smile, so I think I'll put some music on and just sit for a bit longer. The whole point of being retired, surely? This too of course!

Sand here - we love steak above all else and are both carnivores. Maxx does get my leftovers for treats and training (we buy large sirloins or rib-eyes and they're too big for me)

Are there no end to your talents @Sophiedoodle, she looks excellent.

Aw thank you! I have learned so much at work.

 

[Granca]

She wasn’t happy because mum was cutting up steak and I was keeping her away taking photos - you can see she’s slightly looking up at the worktop I don’t blame her(!) but trust me, she’s a lot happier now than before!

But did she get just a little bit for standing looking so beautiful?!

 

[Jacqui-S]

No.
Every last bit ended up in the pasties.

Good work @Sophiedoodle , I`m building myself up to tackle Nelly and her flowing locks x

 

[SwampDonkey]

You've got muddy paws you soppy faced bear.

 

[Jen]

I love this time of day

 

[edzbird]

Oreo looks fantastic @Sophiedoodle . You have done a superb job.

OH is away at his mum & dad's and I have got out of going! I do love them, but I'd rather not stay with them. Now I have 3 nights in a double bed, all to myself and my 2 snuggle-bugs, no man-snoring. I don't have to eat meat until he's back on Monday..and I am sipping a Mojito before a very early bed. I am smiling all over.

** I do enjoy a little meat, but we have it all the time because he's a Meat Eater.

This kid

Just inhaled a full bowl of chilli and rice, 2 yoghurts and some baby snacks, now he’s having a biscuit

 

[SwampDonkey]

Why that gap needed fillin.

 

[Ashley]

Ordered Quinn a ruff and tumble and it's already shipped...but maybe a half smile, since the cost in CDN$ made me wince!

I think he takes after his mum. He has gorgeous eyes.
