WEEKEND REPORT ON A TUESDAY???
February 17, 2009 in Uncategorized

We have been seeing lots of wonderful sunsets lately…..
Hello blogland….yep, I’m still here & I’m OK….thanx to those who have enquired. Why is life so crazy busy???? I had hoped that it would calm down a bit but it seems to be going just the opposite way
( but I’m not complaining….no sirree!!! It’s just that….well, you see……other things (including my ancient dinosaur pc system) are messing with my work blogging time and when you have a bit of an addiction like I do have *blush*……then that just is not good enough…..now IS IT??? Thank you so much to everyone for all the lovely comments on past posts. I will eventually find my way round to everyone
)……
Had a super duper weekend and Valentine’s Day. Browniegirl was thoroughly spoiled
) I was also quite busy in the kitchen but managed to make brownieboy some yummy blueberry pancakes for breakfast…..the weather was lovely and I had plans for an early evening picnic but the South Easter came up and messed around too much with those plans so we brought the picnic indoors and had a wonderful time. Gorgeous son and his lovely GF joined us and it was most enjoyable. Served a range of finger foods which included pan seared garlic & chilli marinated prawns, hot camembert, beautiful figs, avocado, asparagus, home grown baby tomatoes, sliced baguettes, savoury biscuits & crisps, dips, chocolate mousse, strawberries, black seedless grapes, Four Cousins Sparkling Rose ….hmmmmmm all delicious!!
Here are a few pictures of our food……
and also some of my cute grandsons…
Little Jay is growing & developing so fast…..he sings & chats & plays drums on any surface he can find. He already has quite a vocabulary. He is very keen to be walking on his own now, manages to walk while pushing his little trolley or holding onto hands. So precious. This weekend we are having his first birthday celebrations and also his baptism. Moo is going to be busy again
)
and then………..just ’cos I can………the jelly baby toes…….not so clean and soft anymore
)
Hope you are all having a great week so far……..

You had me on the “garlic and chilli marinated” and if the next word had been “cardboard”, I’d still have considered eating it! Hehe

Hello Little Moo. Not to worry, it probably just an application somewhere, it blocks video’s and pics of all the other bloggers so it is maybe the way it is set up here.
Wow, the foodies look delish!
And the grandsons are cute!
Hopefully you are not doing any housework right now…
Have a good nite!!

Oi Madam BrownieGirl, I snuck a peek into blogland (looking very official and hopefully nodding my head at the appropriate times in my meeting), and there’s no new post from you.
This is so not acceptable. Consider yourself reprimanded ;-0
Hugs
