My Blogger blog reminds me off a cash book on my fathers - it had just one entry; Bought Cash book.
Well I have a 'professional' blog at www.equerry.co.uk - I use the term loosely, but I increasingly find that I want to add more and more of me into it - which is not really what it is about. So here I am back on Blogger.
So today I am preparing for my oldest mate - you know the brother I wish I had - to come and stay for the week end with myself and Yvonne. We are very lucky to live in an enchanted village, Buckworth where weekends are dedicated to relaxing. We bought Owl Cottage so we could relax - rather than have a holiday home we decided to live every day in our holiday home. All in all a decision we have not regretted.
So this morning I prepare the last of our Bramley Apples for tomorrows lunch - just lightly cooked, sweetened with honey and some dates left over from Christmas - tomorrow Yvonne will just add a crumble - scrumptious. We really have got entertainment nailed - simple food, steak and kidney tomorrow; good wine and plenty of it.
Over Christmas I had some side effects from having radiotherapy - from sitting too long at the dinner table. Both Christmas day and New Years Day we sat and enjoyed the food from 2.00 o'clock right through to 8.00 - which sounds awful - but actually it was very civilized gentle grazing rather than the usual blow out.
Tonight we are going to a Burns Night supper and tomorrow we will walk the dogs and enjoy Sunday lunch. I walk the dogs every day and really enjoy it - even in the rain, seeing the seasons turn is an important aspect of grounding yourself. This week I have seen the first pair of hares and the small birds, wrens and blue tits busy in the hedges, along with the snowdrops and daffodils poking up their heads - it is a sign of spring on it's way - irrespective of the doom merchants talking up the economic crisis.
Hey ho - better open a bottle of red to let it breath.
