Let Them Have Cake!

Love is the exploding cigar we will willingly smoke - Lynda Barry

Welcome to the Weekend 🎈

We had a nice lie-in.

Dropped of son at his boxing lesson.

We enjoyed a much needed Boost with coffee↓ 

We got the bedroom tidied up.

I had to sort out my baking hand↓

Once the cake went in the oven.

The washing machine went on.

Then it was time to play with Henry..

Tumble drier back on.

Light lunch time↓

Now to make more facemasks↓

Whiskey and Ginger Cake.

I got the shopping list from my neighbour.

It was still raining, and the wind got up!

Now to do the shopping for the week.

Once we did the shopping in Lidl.

We popped into Home Bargains for some Spring Onions for my neighbour.

The rain was lashing down and a dash of heavy winds!

Gets back home in the rain.

Dropped off my neighbour's shopping...

Put our shopping away.
