It has been dull but dry for a couple of days allowing me to mow both our lawns, and just in time as today is damp and drizzly again. I daresay summer will put in an appearance sometime - hopefully before next year.Heatherhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06826501916623305535noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-20568749161965424842016-06-21T23:10:51.277-07:002016-06-21T23:10:51.277-07:00According to the forecast, we're in for a mini...According to the forecast, we're in for a mini heatwave from today until the weekend, when the hot weather is supposed to break again, with probably plenty of thunderstorms and more rain - as if we had not had enough of both yet! But I'm not complaining but instead am happy to be able to wear a dress to work today without needing tights and a cardigan :-)<br /><br />Our cats were always the same - they would have regular meals at their place in the kitchen, but never passed on the opportunity to nick something from an unsuspecting neighbour who would leave food out on her kitchen counter.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-38256758986333342642016-06-21T16:12:03.363-07:002016-06-21T16:12:03.363-07:00Thank you, Weaver, for your kind comment over at m...Thank you, Weaver, for your kind comment over at my place.<br /><br />What a grand gift you commissioned for the Farmer's birthday. I've been making lots of gift over the past few weeks with my knitting needles (and yarn, of course) and really think that one of a kind (one off) gifts are the best.<br /><br />Your description of those chickens waiting to see what new nibbles might be coming their way has made me not only smile, but laugh.<br /><br />Let the record show that I have had a veg-filled salad for supper tonight. Egg sandwich for lunch.<br /><br />Tomorrow might bring a different selection. Still, with all the fresh veg now available, why not indulge?<br />xoFranceshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08352407314710067616noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-972793669716043592016-06-21T15:07:33.335-07:002016-06-21T15:07:33.335-07:00Oh your cute little hens with the human attitude o...Oh your cute little hens with the human attitude of stolen fruit is the sweetest.Terra https://www.blogger.com/profile/04396481049075747940noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-31095208996038762492016-06-21T15:06:11.902-07:002016-06-21T15:06:11.902-07:00Chickens are so funny.

Today was lovely and very warm and sunny with a drying breeze but Thursday we are threatened with a month's rain in one day. Despite the abundance of grass this year, nobody seems to be cutting silage or hay so far, mind you, with rain almost every other day it has been difficult judging when to start.<br />Derek Faulknerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05140363868104172311noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-280582018791422638.post-78704245051896682262016-06-21T11:33:57.537-07:002016-06-21T11:33:57.537-07:00We are roasting here...turning into toasted marshm...We are roasting here...turning into toasted marshmallows!
