Steph- Hope Olive is better this week. No fun. What is fun is a good sharp knife. I am always amazed at how cathartic it is to cut something so smoothly. Don't know what it says about me. Kind of scary? Having spent a week at the beach camping we are sadly back to our dull routines in 90plus degree weather in Virginia. The West Virginia mountains in a few weeks though!
You are always a joy to read. My heart goes out to you and little Olive, I sure hope she gets better and you can rest easy again soon. Olive's so lucky to have you. Hopefully no more vet visits for a while. I can't wait to try your summer pudding and compote. And nothing beats pasta with loads of parmesan. This is going to be a good week. And your new knife is gorgeous! Wishing you a fulfilling and restful week.
You’re right Steph, the Wimbledon men’s final was a classic, 5 hard fought sets after it looked like Carlos was going to be overwhelmed in the first! It’s the start of a new era where the Wimbledon title is not held by a Novak, a Roger, a Rafa or an Andy, and I think Carlos’s name is going to be on that trophy several more times. We don’t have Apple TV but my wife’s totally in the Idris camp. I’m starting to imagine your ideal dinner party guests: Stanley Tucci, Lewis Hamilton, Idris Elba....??? The other place my imagination is going is just what that summer pudding tastes like, it looks divine! Anyway, I hope Olive keeps out of trouble this week and you have a good one, regardless of the pants weather in Chester and the UK generally! ⛈️😟😊
