Hello Kitcheners- hope you don't mind and apologies if a new kitchen has already been opened elsewhere but I couldn't find it if there has... I've done my best but it still needs a few throws and cushions to make it more homely, ready for the nights drawing in and chillier evenings. Some freshly baked scones, jam and cream on the side if you fancy a treat.
I hope you dont think it presumptious of me to start this kitchen as I don't post as regularly as some of you but do find Soops Kitchen a lovely place to drop into even if I've nothing to say.

Grannmarie I think Milo is one of LLFL’s cats? Ripley too I think.

πŸ‘‹ LLFL things have been smoother today thankfully after a worrisome day yesterday.

Our rollercoaster life. It sucks.

Yia hoping you got good scan results for your husband today - it would be the Best Birthday Present for you. 🀞

Thinking of you also dragonfly in your own worried world right now.

Carefree days (boring ones even) are to be treasured.

Fondest thoughts as always to the soops.
Much missed. x

True FGT2, we have Milo and Ripley!

I’m glad you’ve had a better day.

Hello kitchen people. OH has just gone out to his shooting club. I will watch the final of Bake-off even though some would say the winner is a foregone conclusion.

I had a nice afternoon with a couple of friends drinking tea and eating biscuits.

I cooked a plain dinner - bacon, poached eggs, baked beans and toast.

I hope all is well with the FGT2S. 🌺

Hello πŸ‘‹ Grandmadinosaur, nice to see you in the kitchen!

Well, I'm home from my appointment with antibiotics for my chest infection...lucky white heather! Hibernation continues...I've cancelled Thursday's Bookgroup outing to see To Kill a Mockingbird. 😭

Hoping Mr YiaYia's appointment goes well. 🀞

Happy Birthday Yiayia hoping the appt for your DH goes well 🀞

Glad to hear your grandson is getting over his op Grandmabatty He has been a brave boy. He will probably talk about it for ever. I know my DH frequently reminds us about when he fell out of a tree when a boy and the scar on his head πŸ˜•

Apologies, YiaYia, I got your wee kitten's name wrong! I'm still suffering Covid brain 🀣 where did I get Milo from?
Spiros is a beautiful boy πŸˆβ€β¬›

Have a good day with your wee wounded soldier, Grandmabatty.

Another disturbed night with this hacking cough, I'd to sleep sitting up, if I lie down I can hear my chest making weird noises...got an appointment with the Nurse practitioner later today. Perhaps I was over ambitious going out yesterday.

Best wishes to all with appointments this week.

Wishing everyone the best possible Tuesday. TOYA.
