A Few Bits & Bobs......

 One of my very favorite blog friends...

Sent me a Guest Book for the cottage...

The pics that I had posted here and on IG, of Miss V signing my book at the cottage, inspired her to send me this book that she had had for many years and not used at her own home.

But the icing on the cake...

Was the adorable wee water colour that she included!!!!

She painted this of my toes...in my backyard here...with my blog title 💕

She is an excellent baker and a water colour artiste extraordinaire!!

Her home and gardens are fabulous...she certainly has the "Golden" touch...

Have you ever seen anything so sweet???

A few of you...who also follow her beautiful blog...will know who she is!!

I got my crochet hook out...and made her 2 cotton dishcloths, to thank her for her kind and beautiful gift!

I also made her a card...because that is what I do!! hahaha!! 

 I kept myself busy during all that rain last week...

Got 3 more dishcloths made up...just in case...😉

I am really enjoying making these...love all the different colours...

Now for a few shots from my garden here at home...

Not much really happening...other than a few Forget-Me-Nots....

But my Peonies are really taking off!! Ants and all!!! 

My Trilliums are up...but no flowers...????

I posted this pretty flowerey vine yesterday on IG...

I do not know what it is!!

Betsy has tried to find it, but to no avail...

I got a shot of the leaves below...

Anybody know what this is???

I actuall think it gets a few berries in the Fall...

So...

Perhaps a bird left it for me! 

 And last...

But...

Certainly not least...

Miss V spent Sunday with us... 

The same lovely gal who sent me the guest book, had given her grandson one of her older cameras to take a few photos with...

I copied her...and handed Miss V one of my smaller older ones..(actually the one I give my boyfriend to use from time to time)...and let me tell you...she had a ball!!!

A chip off the old block for sure!!! I have posted a few of hers on IG, if you want to take a look over there....

She was super...and even got a hilarious selfie...😂

So that is me up to the minute...

Hope you are all well...

Thinking of people in our country who are feeling the wrath of the recent rains...

Lots of flooding up here...luckily not for me...and the cottage is fine...

We are heading back down there in the morning...hoping for a few good days in a row... 

Perhaps even a trip to the nursery....:o)

            Oven Panko Cajun crusted Cod...homemade pasta salad...asparagus...

                  Dinner tonight!!!

                       Enjoy the rest of your week my friends...

                                Cheers!  :o)
