treat yourself

Maybe we should all be heading to Ireland for tonight’s shindig. I think Chilli & soda bread is just the thing for freezing cold weather. Your place Poppy? Will Mr Poppy mind if there’s a few more people in the house wrecking the place with their wheelchairs and bad driving when pished?

I have my new Japanese ROKU gin. I’m happy to share…

Oh lordy. Well that answers your question Sue. We don’t have home help, just personal help for me for the shower and dressing. Mr Poppy wouldn’t be a happy bunny. He already feels hard done by with the essential housework he has to do.

Let’s gather at the ms centre. It’s rented for use of the members, has a dishwasher. Oh and very comfy long padded and upholstered seats like you find in a bar… should anyone not be able to make the journey home…

Now there’ll not be soda bread tonight. Hadn’t the heart to bake some more but do have some part baked rolls to throw in the oven. I’m going to have to teach myself to drink gin I think.

Loved the gin pancake joke…

But now I really want to try a gin pancake for real.!

Surely you have pancakes at your next party ?

It’s Mick (Mogace) who makes gin pancakes no doubt with assorted cheeses!

Where mick and his pancakes when you need him …lol.

At 03:56 ( UK) I was in the land of nod ! Always happy to bring a variety of cheese and pancake and gin, choccy and wine. just don’t expect quality conversation.

Our recent guests did not get the message about social distancing at their party…

A bit like ours Mick. No manners either!

Glad you’re here. Thought I’d come a bit early and plug these slow cookers in. Mr Poppy dropped me off and is happy to escape and have some quiet time to himself. Now, I’ve got the fiery chili in one, chicken curry in the other and a mild veggie curry in this one. It should warm everyone up. There’s a six pack of beer there hanging around since Christmas. I’m sure it will be consumed by someone at some point.

Poppy

all three curries/chilli will be gratefully consumed.

A cold beer to accompany spicy food will be delightful.

Cheers xx

All this talk of food making me soooooo hungry. think il have a wee bevvie while waiting on my tea getting made. My partner making tea for a change, fingers crossed!! Can’t wait to get back to normal so we can go out to eat and drink and drink and drink!!

Those are so pretty! What are they?

Hi NorasMom, I will try to answer by using some Google images.

The little loud one, bottom left is a Siskin I think.

Image result for siskin

the one above who is being shouted at is I believe a Great tit

The multi coloured ones are Goldfinches

and the out of focus little bird is a Blue tit

We are so so lucky with the variety birds that come to visit, although the cost of feeding them is rising rapidly.

Sure as hell is better than watching telly !
