Here we are again
Happy as we can possibly be
ALL GOOD Friends
And jolly good company.
Welcome. 
How extremely odd. I just popped in to the kitchen this evening and found that my lunch time post had been halved and had apparently been posted in the early evening! Our internet seems to have a life of its own.
I feel much more relaxed now , lovely lunch and a glass of wine this evening. Earlier we needed extra batteries from the local supermarket and I happened across a supposedly healthy snack 
I thought they might go down well in the kitchen…called dates in cocoa but the cocoa just happens to be Belgian chocolate. Fortunately we’ve finished our packet but in this no calorie kitchen you can eat as many as you are able.
Thinking of you Grandmabatty. Difficult days for you and I hope you’re feeling better now.
Sending strength to Baggs dd. A similar event occurred in ds2’s life and it was a shattering thing to cope with. The one blessing was that a cohort of friends gathered together and supported each other hugely. I hope it’s the same for Minibaggs. I’ve just seen that Baggs has fallen, I hope she is recovering well.
I’ve missed a lot here but I’ll do my best. Happy birthday to those who are celebrating. 🎂 Those dog portraits are gorgeous, Soop.
I’ve just been doing family things with ds this week. Yesterday I was an ‘American mom’ - going to meet GD off her yellow school bus. This morning the tornado siren went off - luckily it was just the weekly system test! Though it was very windy last night, I’m surprised we’re still here this morning. 
Ds1 is feeling a lot brighter now the worst of the side effects have worn off. He and ds2 have been having fun, going off for lunches and working together on a giant Lego kit, which has proved to be a brilliant diversion. Tonight we’re all off to hear GS playing in his school orchestra concert. His instrument is the viola.
Tomorrow is our last full day here before saying farewell on Sunday.
Take care, all. Xxx
Good afternoon dear Kitcheners. Sunshine and showers today so my walk was cut short. I’ve had a better day energy wise and my back is feeling better. I must resist the temptation to do too much now, I’m not good at pacing myself . I’ve done some cleaning in the kitchen, the bits you don’t usually see! There’s a curry in the slow cooker so we can chill later.
Hope you feel better soon Grandmabatty.
A lovely positive post SueD, I hope things continue to go well.
Good news re the pet portraits Soop, please pass on our love and best wishes to Baggs.
Happy Birthday to all celebrating, I’m sure I’ve missed some
Happy St. Patrick’s Day to any Irish grans and Happy St. Gertrude’s Day to any cat lovers!
Apparently she’s called upon to ward off rats and mice, and is often pictured with a cat.
Trying to keep up a little better in this kitchen.
Everyone seems so busy with holidays and moving. Lovely portrait of the gorgeous dog, soop. I'm not surprised the owner is pleased. Please pass on my love to baggs when you see her and gentle hugs sent to minibaggs, too.
We have DD2 and gang here for the weekend. DH is going to the pub for tea on the way to the football with DS1, so I am sitting down conserving my energy before tomorrow. It will be a bit like your tornado, Sue, once they arrive.
