GF Iām used to my old Avery scales I had them given me 40 years ago āāāāāā and baking wouldnāt be the same without them.
Itās not summer here today Iāve even got trousers on instead of my shorts.
Went out for a grory hop and picked up my French patisserie book. Interesting but not astounding despite its huge size. Big enough to use as a stone in the foundations of the extension Mr Snoop is working on. Be-ro book will be next, and by the sound of it just as useful if not more so.
Nicos, we have next to no wasps here. They came out during the really warm spell late winter and I can only think were killed off by the cold snap that followed. We have no cabros at all and last year we had dozens, next to no yellow jackets or other wasps, can't remember when I last saw a butterfly and the bees - all of them, big and small - have simply disappeared.
Well up bright and early to take Mrs G to work as I need the car today for something... can't think what it is though got to mow the lawn apparently - I hate mowing lawns ... then the worlds my lobster tillabout 12:00 ish

Never be afraid to try something new.

Morning itās a kind of dull start this morning, who knows what the rest of the day will bring.
Itās Wednesday, a special day for someone I believe! Oh yes Gus is going to his knew home today!! Enjoy Nick, Iām sure you will and remember those photos!
On a side note, my mum had a Be-ro book then I had it until it fell to pieces and I had to order a new one. Great little thing.
Have a great day everyone, especially those with a new family member arriving. x
Hi. Sunny here - time to walk dogs then collect their food from local game butcher - venison trim.
Getting on well with the bread maker - last effort was the best so far 50/50 Rye/White.
Has anyone got a favourite flour mix to recommend?
I'll do the back windows before the sun comes round GF and the front this afternoon. I did try cleaning them once in the sunlight wearing sunglasses but that didn't work

I think I am just the world's worst window cleaner. I have tried every method over the years and the only half decent one for me is the window vac but in the shade. I can't actually believe that I was actually stupid enough to buy wardrobes with mirrored doors!!š¤Æ
Mornin nāallnāall
Youāll enjoy the BeRo book Snoopā¦I do tend to replace any marg in the recipes though with butter
Love the garden NTGā¦come on, we all need to see the toys you have ready for Gus ā¦.2hrs and counting!
Not sure what Iām up to today - more āthings with plums ā no doubt
The two main trees are almost finished but the third one is still very green.
Gfā¦you should try cleaning south facing Velux windows when itās 40C
Best get a wiggle on and collect more plums. What with those and mammoth courgetteā¦..
Enjoy your day peeps - I know NTG willā¦the smiles are already en route thereā¦

That window cleaning reminded me of something I read or heard once about cleaningā¦..āYou never notice a clean windowāā¦.how true- also of mirrorsā¦One fingerprint stands out and waves to you doesnāt it
Same with shiny metal bins in the kitchen.

10.20 am in the UK. Really not long to go now, NtG.
Plenty to keep me busy today. Mr Snoop has gone off into town for assorted errands. I'm holding the fort with the dogs. Lucky us. It's sweltering out there and I'll be amazed if Mr Snoop finds anywhere shady to park the car.
Better get on with things. Be-ro book on the list of things to order for my next trip back to the UK. Thanks for the encouragement, guys.
Have a great day, everyone. Make the most of the smiles when they come round your way. I think they'll congregate and get stuck at NtG's.
Come to think about it Snoop- I did wonder what the smiles had tucked under their wingsā¦and Iām pretty sure they were bags of puppy treatsā¦..just over an hour to go!ā¦..I do hope you have checked the car starts NTGā¦..you can never be too careful. Enough petrol too?ā¦.
