Much cooler with rain early on so we spent a restful day watching The Voyage of Charles Darwin and listening to stories on YouTube.

Fair Damsel made huge pasties for dinner and I provided the chips + baked beans for me.

All's well in our world.😊💫🌻🌞

Cooking with Mrs. C 👩🏻‍🍳 ...

I needed to use up all of the leftover chicken so I made my most overstuffed pasties yet. I hope I don't have a blowout!

Miss Watson seems to like the new catnip mouse I made.

Mr. C returned from his bike ride this morning triumphantly bearing a sprig of bluebells for me.

Before breakfast I cycled to Intermarché for milk, bread, eggs and potatoes. Took over 2 hrs in total and it was sunny by the time I was halfway home so I regretted wearing a coat.

Never mind, it gave me an appetite for Sunday dinner.😋

😊💫🌻🌞

Watching 'Miss Marple: A Pocketful of Rye'

Me: I really must start behaving like I'm absent minded.

Mr. C: Why?

Me: Because it's such a good cover for being clever.

Sweet dreams, Sunbeams!

I started with 3 square bears. Then I squared them. Now I have a square foot of square bears.

A beautiful hot day with blue sky and the perfect opportunity to give the camper a thorough cleaning from top to bottom.

It's also a day to have our windows open so Fair Damsel can enjoy the birdsong.

All's well in our world, Sunbeams.

I had to wait until after Eid to post these as one was a gift for Sarah. I gave it to her filled with sweets.

I love playing with patterns and seeing what I can make from them. I was able to turn these wildflowers into pretty little pouches.

We just finished watching 'The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes' starring Basil Rathbone and Nigel Bruce. Our Miss Watson thinks it's sleepy time now. I concur.

Merci beaucoup to the person who posted the reel saying I should rotate my plants. Thanks to you I discovered that the succulent leaves that had fallen into my Octopus's Fairy Garden have numerous pups. This proves that the best way to propagate succulents is accidentally.

An early start to do laundry before the rain came. Then cleaned inside camper which took a while due to the effects of winter.

We watched The Voyage of Charles Darwin before making dinner and settling down to watch the eclipse. 😊💫🌻🌞

 

 

I've had enough scam attempts to know a few ways to test them. First: always check their profile. New accounts with no posts are a clear sign. Next: say something outrageous and see their reaction.

Me: I'm going to make turnips this afternoon.

Mr. C: Really?

Me: Of course, we'll keep the first one.

Mr. C: Why?

Me: I always keep the first one.

Mr. C: 🤔❓

Me: 💡I'm crocheting them, not cooking them.

Mr. C: Oh...I like turnips.

An early start to do laundry and cleaning. A late breakfast followed by an M.R. James story led to a 

short nap.

In the afternoon we went shopping in Craon and Fair Damsel took several photos.

Relaxing now.😴

All's well in our world, Sunbeams.

I received a lovely Unbirthday Present from my dear friend Anna today: an adorable kitty brooch with a beautiful matching card.

Wasn't it sweet of Miss Watson to "help" me work on my granny square sweater?

I'm feeling much better: the shivers have gone along with most of the aches and pains. I've slept most of the day but saw Sarah and Michel before they left for Paris with Fair Damsel's gift for Eid.

Fair Damsel treated me to chips and beans.😋

I've been feeling cold with aches and pains today so Fair Damsel's loving gift of her specially crocheted rabbit has been a true tonic.

We've named him Manders after Bunny from Raffles.

The spoiling continued with a Sunbeamadelicious dinner.😋
