Your treat for today

I have just spoken to my boys, they and their partners are working from home and have supplies in. I’m happy, ?

I have been trying to get Skype installed.. duh! well I am computer illiterate.. click where I am told to.. unfortunately.. duh! duh! I don`t know where I have to click!

Our Club is cancelled so we are doing an online version tonight. Should be a hoot.

Great idea pantglass. I have some mottled bananas so will make a banana loaf. Then I will take a leisurely walk in our local country park. Later I will continue de-cluttering my late husband's study ready for decorating and converting into a sewing room. Just need to finish my coffee and get of the sofa first.

Just had food delivery and thrilled that I was still able to get eggs. My son has severe mental health issues and it is his birthday on Friday so hooray I will be busy making him and his friends a chocolate cake!

Posted pics earlier but they disappeared / I’ll try again.....

Planted a tub of primulas yesterday, so every time that I open the front door there is a blaze of colour to look at, along with pots of Cornish daffodils and narcissi

I’ve just planted two rows of potatoes. Pure joy!

Went out early to shop and stopped at the cafe for cooked breakfast. Our treat for the day. We are not self isolating yet but have postponed our UK break

I'm self-isolating because of age and health issues, plus have had a nasty cough.
The one treat I'm enjoying is not having to wear a bra. No one will see me, so I can be shapeless and comfortable!

I've had my haircut this morning,much shorter than usual,and I like it.Thought I could experiment as I won't be seeing many people for a couple of months.

Not today, but I hit 60 yesterday so I went for a walk round the carriageway at Rothbury, across fields, with views over the hills. Sunshine all the way. Back to reality now as at work today but took some nice photos to remember.

Planting some salad and herb seeds and thinking of treating myself to a raised trough. I certainly know how to enjoy myself! ?

A lovely hot shower. Having a new boiler fitted today so can stop longer than 30 seconds under a like warm shower!

Enjoying a delivery from my milkman. Yes, I had ordered it, but still nice to find it on my doorstep first thing this morning and a relief to know we have breakfast as I have refused to panic buy. Simple pleasures for difficult times.

Chocolate flavour milk.

Will try a new recipe for gf gingerbread as I am celiac.

I shall study the plant catalogue that arrived last week and prepare an order, as it looks like I can't go to a garden centre any time soon. So at least I can look forward to new plants later in the spring.

Gabriella G54 I think Lakeland do liquid starch.

It’s sunny here, so I shall potter in the garden, which is going on in its usual Spring fashion as if there wasn’t a problem in the world! Sunshine and new growth

rubysong, how can you just eat 2 squares? I admire your self discipline, but this is why dh and I so rarely buy any - our inner ?? are too strong!

We have quite a lot of milk, so with nothing else remotely treat-ish in the house, I might just make a great big 2 pint rice pudding. Dh will no doubt help me ?most of it tonight.

Crikey, I admire your pluck.

I used to wear boots and shoes with that kind of heel, it seems a long time ago.

I guess fashions come around again.

Anoia Happy Birthday!
Hope you have a great day, is there cake?

Just asking.........
