Gifts galore

Thanks everyone for a special birthday!

Brown Windsor soup

It's winter. It's cold. Time for a hearty soup. Brown Windsor soup, with home-baked bread.
Stewing steak, red onion, Marmite, Worcestershire sauce, carrots, celery, beef stock, bay leaf, pearl barley. Yum!

5 + 5 = 55

So, I turned 55 this year. Whoa, scary stuff ;-)

Heart felt and hand made

Wonderful gift from Trish. She made them all. 5 large ones for the decades, 5 smaller ones for the years. Beautiful, thank you so very much.

Dance like your feet are on fire!

My two nieces, girls just having fun.
