We had a picture perfect day! It started off being overcast and threatening rain, but by the time their train arrived, the skies had cleared up to make way for one of those perfect early summer afternoons, beautiful blue sky and fluffy white clouds.

I spent lots of the afternoon holding a completely charming, always smiling Xavier …

Look at all the fun Cara had ….. what a minute, what the hell …… ??

company’s coming!

Jen, Xavier & Cara are coming for a visit – lunch and swimming and knitting! I made a quick trip to the grocery store for provisions ….. Cara went to the store for a razor.

I suppose instead of poking fun, I should just be grateful. ; )

with a twist ….

In her post today, Cara mentioned that things seem to be quiet in blogland. And it’s true, I’ve noticed it too and I’ve also been feeling it myself.

As the temperatures start to climb, I seem to have less and less to say. Well, that’s not exactly true, as you’ll find if you call me on the phone. I should say, I seem to have less and less inclination to type it all out. And it’s not that I don’t want to blog – I do! I do!! (you’re not getting rid of me that easily). Maybe having a hot laptop on my thighs is like knitting a woolen afghan.

All the sunshine and balmly breezes are making me a bit languid. A bit gin-and-tonics-on-the-porch-ish.

man, that sounds good.

and another thing – would it be wrong to have chocolate cake right before Ye Olde WW Weighe Inne?
