You can never have enough...

It was lovely in Devonport today, clear blue skies, happy people, and the scoot traveled well. Lots of lovely interior design picture books at the library, a sweet tiny flowered paph orchid at the hardware shop, and a huge bag of vegies from the fruit shop, along with a big block of Whittakers latest extravagance, banana caramel - which I am not convonced works, I need to try a few more bits to see...

Caught up with the old owners of my favourite cafe while coffeeing and caking in there, which was great fun, it's been ten years... And came home the long way round past the beach, with happy dogs bouncing in the water and more smiley people.

Once home I located the hooks I bought years ago and put them up in the scooter bay to hold the dismountable metal bits that can hold flags or cat boxes or shopping baskets, to keep them off the wet ground, another to do list item ticked off. Oven cooked fish and chips for dinner, so nothing to do but read in the sun till it gets cold.

Life is good...

Out picking a stem of parsley this afternoon, and something caught my eye... My coffee bush has flowered at some stage, secretly and without song and dance, and now there is a green coffee bean perched on the stem. I won't be getting much of a wake up brew from that baby, but it is rather fun, nevertheless...

Glad you had a nice day Hunni and surprise with the coffee plant.. I had never thought about growing them or if they even grew here.

I was soo good at keeping the heat on my back today that I never gave the pudding a thought.. So will make one tomorrow.

So Im finishing my ice cream, which would go great with the pudding but I have milk open if need be.

A repeat of my venison and mashed tatties was yummy.

Oh and I agree Kiwimade, wild venison is yummy, and is what this is. Dianne's hubby gave a guy some fish and he turned up with the venison, he's a hunter.. And then they shared with me. Not a grain of fat on it.

Very spoilt..

And Di told me today she is going to take Lorraine (Sister) , Caron ( daughter of colleen from the home) and myself to The Malt and Steel which is a restaurant / bar... I've never been there... The rugby player Ummm Donald is the surname the one who helped win the important game in the world cup used to own the place. OH Stephen

So that will be fun all being together. She said we are the only ones other than hubby and son who have helped get her through all this cancer stuff.

And we have decided to have a girlee day out shopping too once we know what is happening with her body. She certainly isnt a woe is me when it comes to illness and Life.. Neither am I although I do complain sometimes. But I learnt that the only one I hurt is myself if I dont do what Im told.

And thats why the Knee Dr telling me he was wrong made my day.. Yeah I could have sat their and been stupid, but the only one that would have affected was me.

I told David the other day and he agreed , it must have felt good. He on the other hand , who is still getting his feet and legs treated 7 months later said one of the district nurses told him he could still lose his leg. He did not appreciate it, but to be honest we had all said the same... But you cant sit on the couch with your feet up when you have a partner in a rest home or run a business and look after two dogs either.
