Your treat for today

Thank you for a lovely thread.

Been watching Holiday of My Lifetime. Very pleasant and it's given ideas for when travel resumes.

A lovely scenic coastal walk with my brother and his wife. Dinner made by dh enjoyed with a glass of wine.

How lovely, Allegretto. It's always nice to receive flowers ?

Oops! I should have read that before I posted.

I’ve not been shopping since March, having stuck to online deliveries. Today I had received a bouquet of letterbox flowers and they are beautiful.

Good to hear from you dustyangel .Hope we can meet up again next year.

An afternoon curled up in a comfy chair with a book ?

Greenfinch and I had forgotten this thread so thank you.

A glass of Bailey's and DH cooking the dinner. Bliss !

Ooh Pantglas you’re making me feel hungry for afternoon tea and I haven’t had breakfast yet! Enjoy your treat!

Morning Treaters - great to see your pics and what a lovely colour on your fritillaries Lisagran (that sounds a bit Frankie Howard-ish!)

My treat for today is afternoon tea - salmon & cucumber and egg & cress finger sandwiches with toasted banana bread and some bara brith to finish. Might make scones but I’ve no cream so perhaps not....

Fritillaries appearing now in the garden ?

So here we are about to enjoy our well earned treat.....weather has been delightful and some of you Treaters have enjoyed the same - must make the most of these small pleasures!

Iechyd da pawb (never were truer words spoken) x

I managed to get milk at the garage, haven’t managed to get any all week. (petrol as well, probably won’t use the car much in the next few weeks but like to be prepared).

Spent the afternoon planting seeds in the greenhouse, now sitting in the conservatory with a cup of tea and biscuits.

Had mother’s day cards and flowers, feels strange not to see my sons but had good chats on the phone.

Lunch by the seaside and the delivery of fresh flowers and tiny cupcakes from my offspring

And I’m sitting in my new chair.

Sunshine, all the garden jobs done that I wanted to do...lawn mowed and all branches cut off eucalyptus tree. It was bluddy hard work and I’m cream crackered but feel happy that I’ve done it. I know I deserve my G&T and I am enjoying it.

Nothing like having the back door open SalsaQueen ?

Washing on the line, the back door open, no central heating on, everywhere is quiet, and the sun is still shining. Nice.

Managed to pick up some fresh fruit, vegetables and eggs from local M&S which opened at 10 and wasn't frantic. We also had a good long walk in Bushy Park where it's easy to keep a distance, clumps of daffs out in great profusion, and best of all spied a family of Egyptian Geese, six goslings first seen a couple of weeks ago in the same spot, now a lot bigger and all have survived

I have had a lovely long shower, put on one of my favourite cashmere jumpers (Christmas gift) sprayed myself with Jo Malone Wood Sage & Seasalt and put on some makeup. Silly I know but it has made me feel better.

I will pull the first rhubarb of the year in a few minutes and that freshly pulled and stewed fruit eaten with Sunday lunch will be today's treat.

Olie Murs was great Elizabeth - I just love that song! Weirdly I think I enjoyed the Ant and Dec programme more without the crazy audience. But "Men in Brown" - really? What a load of childish rubbish (so sorry if people enjoyed it!!)

Who had a good belly laugh yesterday ME Ant and Dec soooo funny I was dancing in my bed last night with Ollie Murs sorry everyone I couldn’t work out how to start a new link.

I have really pushed the boat out - Even though there was jam left for my toast I opened a new jar of lemon curd! It's Mother's Day so I decided to spoil myself. My own darling mum would have definitely approved
