I have been Inspired!!

I have been inspired by Dawn from Dawn's Diversions She has been taking photography lessons & her pictures are truly superb!! A friend brought me a plant last Christmas, I repotted it at the start of the year & it has started to bloom again. I decided that I would take a close up of one of the flowers today.

This picture is the result, next time I go out walking I am taking my camera with me, to see what else I can take!! Thanks Dawn for the inspiration!!

It was Gareth's Birthday yesterday. Brandy had asked Gareth if he wanted a cake, he didn't, he wanted rhubarb pie & english custard!! She told him she wouldn't be able to do that & he would have to have brownies instead!!

Brandy sent me a message asking how she made them both, so she could surprise him!! I told her I already had the custard powder & sent her the recipe for the pie. I got another message, she couldn't make it but could she cheat!! I told her she could, went to meet her to drop off the custard powder.

Yesterday was her day off, we met on facebook & I walked her through making the pie. When it was cooked she sent me this picture!



I sent Brandy a message telling her it looked great, she sent me one back saying she was so pleased as she wasn't sure how it was supposed to look when it came out of the oven!

Gareth was surprised when he got home from work to find rhubarb pie & custard & Brandy was thrilled that he loved it!! True love!!

Buy one get one free!!

I was talking to my parents in the UK today. My dad was telling me about an advert in the newspaper yesterday. It was from Chrysler & said buy one car get one free!!




It apparently said all the supermarkets do it, why not car dealerships! I wonder how that would go down here. It's okay if you both like the car, but you might want something totally different. It will be interesting to see how many people take advantage of it over there!!
