Re: Frosty Friday


Morning, all
Today we go to the pumpkin patch..yipeee!
It is only in the 50s today but nice and bright and only 20% chance of rain so fingers crossed it will not rain on us..if it does, we'll just have to go inside their cafe for some pie, I guess
Solomon is an absolute lovebug in the mornings. Goodness, I love this boy. Last week, I ordered my fave books from Tovey that have Solomon in the storyline (my library stopped carrying just Those Books so I got my own!!) so I can't wait for them to show up so I can cuddle up with my sweet Solomon and read about his namesake
I ordered a SturdiShelter and it arrived yesterday. It's something I've wanted for the cats in case of emergency/evacuation it's a comfortable way for all three of them to travel. Of course the cats did not want to pose with it but the ferrets did while I had my camera out
Think I will look for a large pumpkin today in case Sir Solomon feels the need to investigate it after carving, lol.
I'll have to bring the camera to the pumpkin patch!
Have a good one, all

Re: Frosty Friday


Okay done dinner, noodles, onion, red green & orange peppers in a sweet chilli sauce with chicken; with sour cream and potato wedges.

Rearranged the furniture slightly and so just sitting watching New York New York on the TCM channel. Never seen it before but its very good Liza Minnelliand Robert De Niro its made in 1977 so both young.

Shelley you cannot live in what might of been you did the right thing for your circumstances and Malaika's well being.

I don't remember why did her owners let her go?

We are probably due another visit from the CPN, but whether getting MIL back to the geriatrician would be helpful or not is doubtful to my mind.
Sounds like a spiral thats going downwards at the moment Angie, from my limited experience of people with dementia its hard hard work and I take my hat off too you.

The reason given was the lady had asthma, but we think probs a Basenji was just too much, they are not the dog for everyone.

Re: Frosty Friday


I am really looking forward to the pumpkin patch pictures!

Can I ask our nice American cousins to post any pumpkin recipes in the recipes section? Our local farm shop has loads of pumpkins for sale. I am a fan of pumpkin seed with my breakfast cereal, but fancy pumpkin pie or pumpkin risotto or pumpkin soup recipes .................... be great, thanks!
