1 A lovely weather day, we popped out to the local town CS’s and veg stall, we got so much veg we had to pop back to the car, it really is a great little stall.:)
2 Stopped at the caf! for dinner, always fab.
3 Stopped in at Pets at home looking for something specific and picked up a little plastic ball with a noise making mouse that it a big hit.:T
4 In to Mr T and I was so lucky I was too late for the reductions I noticed a usual group there that were all loaded up with bits and thought ah well will have a look around when I re checked the area they had stocked up again and there was a shelf of raw meats, whole chicken and diced chicken, turkey mince and casserole beef all between 45 and 65p. I snaffled them all very useful here portioned up and frozen now. The animals will have the chicken dehydrated to treats as well. Oh and some easy food in the freezer a binghams macaroni cheese, I am shocked that it was 7.50 to start with as I questioned it at 75p.
5 Nice to be in the warm with a cuppa, DH and the animals.:)

Pleasures for today (Saturday).


1) A lie in.


2) Bigger son came home at 2am and told me all about the fancy dress party and the lady attention he had received! It does seem that there may now be a new "lady of choice"...


3) Hens OK and they enjoyed exploring the new shed.


4) Bigger son went to work then out to a party (still out). Smaller son and I went to watch the football. Various short chants are shouted out but 2 little boys in front of us made up their own epic chants like "Oooo, Po-or missss but better luck next tiii-ime" and just shouting "Off, off, off" when nothing had happened!


5) Watched a bit of television by the stove.


6) Made kedgeree for tea.


7) Meant to go out and watch the Leonids but it is too cold!

Good Morning Peeps,

Saturday

1. Farm shop for hen accoutrements and B&Q for supplies for school. Did not find what I needed at B&Q, but found rtc compost, seeds and screws instead :j

2. Made flapjacks. Too much syrup and a few minutes too long in the oven has made them a bit hard on the teeth, but we will struggle through!

3. Did some school work. ( Not been working at home for about a week, as I was feeling overwhelmed ). Felt I had achieved something.

4. Quick Trip to Mr T for milk, and got some rtc alcohol bargains :j

5. A Hairy Bikers Chicken traybake for tea.

6. Ghost Busters, woodburner, half price shops own version of Baileys, quilting and DH snoring. Saturday Night :cool:

Plumduff55 The Road to Terabithia is such a lovely film.

Have a lovely day

Saturday pleasures,

Woke up at 6am with stinking headache so pleasure of taking tabs and going back to sleep for a couple of hours.

Was just getting washed & dressed when text came through from hay man, delivery in half an hour ok? so mad dash to yard. Capt S came with and together we manhandled 25 bales into the little store, pleasure of barn full of sweet smelling hay.

Walked round to the paddocks to see pony, she frisked me for apple plus carrots then started on Dad, he’s a tad nervous around equines and she was determined so a game of chase me charlie for a few minutes.

Lovely afternoon so few more tulip bulbs planted.

CBA cooking so cheeky chinese takeaway, around 10pm DSS announces he is now going out and won’t be back for the night, oh the energy of the young!

1) Coffee out!

2) A baking session and making chocolate cup cakes and a large Bakewell tart.

3) Finding a new to us walk yesterday all off road, all through wooded areas and leading to the local arboretum, it was really pretty.

4) My friend Ruby the terrier and her mum and dad just knocked to say hello as they were off for a walk, a first here!

5) Waiting for family to arrive for a cup of tea and to eat the above cakes, the best pleasure imaginable!!!

Feeling miserable today as I'm choked with the cold.

Only pleasure is knowing that as I'm retired I don't have to go to work tomorrow.

Hopefully, I'll be back tomorrow with my five pleasures xx

I spent a lazy day pottering about at home so my pleasures were


1) starting a new knit, fun socks for my sister for Christmas
2) drinking Christmas Tea while watching Dunkirk
3) spending an hour cooking and mealprepping and won't have to do much cooking for the rest of the week

4) a big piece of homemade shortbread glaced with some marmelade
5) I finished a knitted jumper yesterday, it hungs on a hook in my bedroom and every time I pass it it makes me so happy that it turned out so lovely and I will be able to wear it tomorrow (thought it made no sense to wear it today when I don't leave the house...)

Plumduff: Hope you feel better soon.
Richard Racoon: What is Christmas Tea?

1 A lovely Sunday morning lay in, so a grilled bacon roll for brekkie blissful.
2 Not feeling too well, I thought a walk might help a bit so took an animal for an hours walk, and picked another 250g of rosehips.
3 Fridge leftovers turned into soup.
4 Meal planned for a few days.
5 Sorting myself out a to do list for tomorrow, a pleasure as I will forget otherwise.
