This afternoon, in order to help me respond to a questionnaire, I recovered missing pictures to the following post:
Wayback Machine was invaluable in this because there was not even an indication of missing pictures on the post.
After this I joined the others around the patio table where we enjoyed cold drinks and happy conversation.
I admired Jackie’s recent planting on the kitchen wall and along the path.
Ellie made the acquaintance of the garden pig which she refrained from putting into her mouth.
Following the kitchen path I also photographed the planting outside the stable door, and continued
past Sweet William in the Oval Bed
to the Rose Garden, focussing on yellow Absolutely Fabulous, and red Aloha.
It was now time for Ellie to be fed crême caramel by Flo
and scone with clotted cream by Becky.
Jackie produced chicken korma and chicken makhani with pilau rice for dinner this evening. She drank Hoegaarden and I finished the Fleurie.
Gorgeous photos. Ellie looks like she’s about ready to crawl. Had she made that step yet?
She hasn’t, Pat. We suspect that, like her grandmother, she won’t – at 9 months Becky just got up and walked. Thanks very much.
Beautiful photos of Ellie 🙂
Thank you very much, Rosaliene
The glass tankard is very much ‘my’ kind of picture – lovely to see!
