Food

I took this photo a few days ago and have no idea where it was at and who I was with! How can I have forgotten? I honestly don’t remember and you take a picture because the food is so nice. I don’t even remember what flavour it was!

It’s quite presentable, and I’m sure it was tasty, but after the last few days of problems and activity the whole thing has completely gone….

You know, the whole Internet is full of images of food. I guess you could save a lot of wasted space by not posting pictures of it!

Treats don’t last

Yummy chocolate cherry treats don’t last long and if I keep buying them, then they are no longer treats!

Only eight in the box, everyone tasty and sweet. With that sharp cherry tang.

I’d buy them every week, but they are not good for me. I swore not to eat as much sugar, but I think I’m addicted to it!

Only savoury treats now? I don’t know, the temptation is too great. Definitely wrapped in red for danger.

If you get to have a treat, enjoy.

Apples

There’s a glut of apples at the moment. People are bringing boxes and bags of them to give away.

Red, golden, yellow, green. Cookers and eaters, full of sugar and fibre. Crisp and juicy. I like them stewed with custard.

And you can’t beat an apple pie or crumble, just the mouth watering and warming dessert for this time of year. Sitting watching the rain and wind blowing horizontally past the windows, I want that bowl of flavour!

One of my cats

Sometimes called Gussy goo, also Buss puss, my littlest cat has many nicknames varying depending on my mood. She’s a sweet little cat and likes sticking her claws in my leg. She often gets through to the skin so I have to fend her off. She loves to nuzzle me for a few minutes but doesn’t stay for long. She was a rescue cat, one of about 20 that lived with an old lady, so I don’t think she got much attention and so she’s not that bothered to being fussed. She will sleep on the bed with me but usually gets off again after 20 minutes.

Like all my cats she’s black and white with piercing golden green eyes. A resl character.

Lemon curd cheesecake

Afternoon tea. Why do we post photos of food. This was lovely, tart and served cold with cream. Best cheesecake I’ve had in years. Plus a nice cup of tea.

We’d gone looking for plants for dry conditions, which we got, but had to visit the cafe. I was tired after Saturday so I hardly had any energy but I’m glad I got out for an hour or so. It was nice to have a gentle rest and a chat with my sister.

Woof

Quick sketch of a Husky called Zorro, he was very lively so I had to try and build up a portrait as he moved around and jumped about. He was only young and will grow bigger. His owner had another one but she’s a lot quieter apparently. I’m going to the same venue tomorrow so I might do some more sketching.

Strawberries and Cream

It’s not Summer, not even Spring, but Strawberries are out in the shops and are quite tasty. I had some tonight for tea with cream. I did sprinkle a bit of sweetner over the top of them.

I did think of adding a few blueberries to the fruit but there was enough with what I’d already prepared.

What I do like is the way cream fills in the little pores of the strawberries, it makes a nice pattern and could be cropped and put together as a collage. I might do that. Red is a favourite colour and this with the contrast of black and white makes a fresh looking image.

Interesting?

Trying to make my cold drink cool?

Playing with position, am I a fool…

Place the camera low and see

What’s in the background

Line up the straw

Straight with the door

Blue white view

And green too

Outside the heat

Inside I’m seat-ed

In a cool suite

With a cold, chocolate, sweet

Drinking icy views in.

Trifle

Finishing off my trifle. Sugar free jelly with fresh raspberries. Blancmange with sweetner, cream on top! Yum!

I only make it for special occasions, my sister has been to visit so it was a treat for her. It’s refreshing and tasty. Not overly sweet, with fresh fruit rather than trifle sponges that can be too sugary.

Mince pie?

It’s September, obviously time

For Christmas mince pies!

The Winter Solstice

Is three months away!

How many sweet desserts

Will be eaten before the season?

We are in mists and mellow fruitfulness

Autumn just begun, not winter yet…

Not Angels and jingle bells!

Eat by date?

Best before 7th October!

Will be spoiled by Christmas!
