Felt very wobbly about 3 hours after tea. Blood sugar low, so had to eat a muesli bar before bed.
Don’t know what is going on, but blood sugar has been low a few times lately.

I bet you brushed enough off Jack to knit him a pup.
My son brushes his Labrador once a week, and can knit a pup with the mound of hair he gets off. The dog feels so much better afterwards too.

Well, the rain came early and the visitors came late.
The best laid plans...

It’s going to take hours to digest that lot!
What is the fascination with the ladies rest room? Do you fancy the wallpaper?

Hopefully I shall be progressing with the gardening today. Visitors expected this morning and rain expected this afternoon, but somewhere in between I hope to garden...

( yuk...horrible job)

Prawn Salad and Lettuce Rolls tonight.
Lasagne tomorrow night I think.

I did quite a bit of gardening today...mostly trimming bushes back that line the path to our front door. All trim and tidy now. I could have done more, but after sweeping the path down, I could really feel it so I called it a day. I have headed for a ten minute lay on the bed to relax my back ( I fi...

The ventilation turrets on the roof suggest a warm climate.
I shall say India...building doesn’t appear to be fenced or guarded, therefore I would say a public building.
Library or Council Offices?

I hope the broom (wot Wendy got for Christmas) is getting lots of work...
Has it still got the tinsel on it, Wendy?

Drat and Double Drat. The plumber can’t get here until next Tuesday, as he is “on Kangaroo Island, helping family out after the bushfires”.
( now...they would be folk living in a bigger mess than I am at present...so I forgive him)

My tip of the day is “have a really good clear out of your kitchen cupboards” regularly.
You will be amazed how good it feels afterwards!

Dishwasher in. Cabinet makers are finished. Just waiting for the plumber...past experience with the plumber tells me he will likely come very late afternoon/tea time. I have had to clear out the lower two shelves of the walk-in pantry as he needs to get to the pipes in the exterior pantry wall. The ...

Witchcraft!

I am sure I will sit on the couch with my feet up in future years enjoying the luxury of a hastily made Cheese Sandwich for tea...a kickback to all the years I have slaved in the kitchen to produce an evening meal!

I suffered gut problems with statins and stopped taking them...couldn’t even handle the lowest dose. I have a new GP since then and have had enough problems with the herniated disc/operation/recovery. He mentioned that on a recent blood test I had slightly elevated cholesterol. My reply was I was no...

Once this dishwasher is installed ( and plumbing completed) our kitchen is finally remodelled. Yes, cabinet makers are expensive, but they do such a good job, and it is worth the investment. The job ours did to cut existing bench tops and cupboards down to house a new( wider) stove/oven/range hood/g...

So are hot bubble baths...a snuggly quilt...a load of cushions on the couch...maybe a small glass of red wine...

Chicken Tikka Curry tonight. Might even have a couple of Chips with it...we have worked hard physically today as well as our walk and a bike ride this morning too. Had to relocate the fridge this morning and empty a couple of cupboards, as the cabinet maker comes tomorrow to fit the dishwasher. (So ...

Awwww...how lovely. Looks like a lovely venue and get together.

I had a full on “hypo” today...not pleasant! I had eaten breakfast and it started coming on about 11am. We were out at the country markets, and the only food on offer there ( pies/pasties/sausage rolls ALL CONTAINED GARLIC.) ( I couldn’t believe my luck! Or lack of it!) Anyway, we made it the 20 min...

It is a “voice over” deal with Disney. Already signed, I believe. The money she would have been paid will supposedly go to a charity for Elephants. That, in my mind, does not cancel out all the plastic rubbish being generated as souvenirs and memorabilia for the movie, which is usually generated thr...

I am just sat here thinking beyond and beyond. Surely the film makers won’t allow all the usual plastic rubbish/dolls/badges/stickers that they call souvenirs for the Princess movie...given the couple are so environmentally aware and passionate about the earth? Which means a loss of revenue. This pl...

Ah...now we get the truth about those young royals.
It seems someone wants to be a Princess on the big screen!
( this is one giant car crash isn’t it? )

I love Cabbage and Carrots cooked long and low with minimum water and a slice of pure butter ( and a bit of salt and pepper) ..absolute heaven, and it is the only way I can get cabbage into my husband. Of course, he loves it next to the mash and sausages, slathered in slow cooked onion gravy. ( I di...

Likely, you pick up oil every time you pat the dog too!
