Asher & Daniel



This is the view I had as I backed out of the driveway after visiting my grandsons.
Charming little chaps, aren't they!


Some questions for you

  1. How happy is Larry?
  2. How high is a kite?
  3. How thick are two short planks?
  4. And just how many sandwiches are there in a picnic?

An "olden days" recipe

And very healthy it is, too!

Coffee Marshmallow
14 marshmallows
Cup hot strong black coffee
1 pint whipped cream

Melt marshmallows in coffee.  When cold, fold in cream.  Place in refrigerator until cold.

Sounds yummy.  I might have to make this sooner rather than later.


A stereotypical seagull


This chip-eating seagull was walking down the footpath in front of me when I was in Denmark recently.   I managed to get out my camera and get this shot of him at a perfect angle.

And finally, for those of you with a musical bent . . . .
