Tea for One

Picked up a gorgeous little Meakin part teaset for a snip today. It was on a second hand stall at my local market. 

Only a single teacup but perfick for indulging oneself.....

Sandyford Clover SUPERCOW 2013

They have done it again.

My super brother and his family have officially bred reared and nurtured the best dairy cow in the whole of the UK winning the highest accolade of SUPERCOW 2013 at the UK's biggest farming event of the year, Agriscot

Well done the Tomo's!

We are so proud of them and our dad Eric would have been bursting with pride.

Logs and Legolas

Trying out James Martins' Yule log minus the chocolate coating. Never made a cake from just eggs and flour before. It has of course cracked in the rolling but tastes good nonetheless.

And middle daughter has gone to a fancy dress party with the theme of a character from a film. She has made the costume entirely from the contents of the dressing up box. Hair her own....

Rainbows......

and wow skies .......

And coffee cake......

Perfick.

Blue Skies

Late summer fun, actually it's the first

day of autumn.

Christmas Dinner 2013

Freshly picked

We have a moderate crop of apples here on our three year old tree.

So we are able to pop them in the lunch box straight off the tree.

A novelty indeed.
