I may have done something wrong.

The last few days have been hectic. Our grand daughters engagement party, I managed to get the photo on my Facebook page but can't get it on here. It was a lovely but tiring day, catching up with family. This afternoon a drive around the bay, overcast and a bit humid. This photo from the Kings beach car parliament. My beautiful cattleya orchid is flowering, a other set of flowers to come and it is perfumed. I tried o sketch it but it is not very good. Haven't picked up a pen for ages. I am also still playing with some embroidery on a long painted piece of cloth that if I can find the right cotton reel I will turn into a scroll. Quite a lot still to do, as well as a final backing. I am making a stir fry for dinner. Hope I remember, be how. I have been enjoying the Olympics. Hope you all had a lovely Valentines day.

some confusion

It was our 63rd wedding anniversary on Monday, can't find a photo but these orchid flowers are just coming out, so pleased. The Thai eggplants are almost in glut at the moment, there are so many of them. John has made the most delicious pickle from them. They do better here than any other egg plant we have tried. I have finally cut back the roses but thank goodness they keep on flowering. We keep walking and driving around the bay. It got a bit hot but has thank goodness cooled down a bit for a couple of days. My feet swell in the heat. For our anniversary it was hot so we stayed home and drank champagne, had a crayfish salad followed by strawberries and ice cream. More than enough and delicious I have been having trouble getting into blogger, again! I think it is because they keep asking for my password and sometimes John changes it, then can't remember what he changed it too. Oh well I am in now but what was that password again?!
