Meet Rosie!

I’d like to introduce you all to Rosie (Rosie Posie as I like to call her!). She’s not mine though, she belongs to my aunt and uncle who have gone away for the weekend and so I’m doggie sitting!! Rosie is a Bichon Frise (a breed of dog I had never heard of until she came along). She is a bit of a 'pampered pooch', but has the sweetest of natures and I love her to bits!! My uncle will soon be 80 years old and their sons and partners/wives have taken my aunt and uncle away for a lovely weekend. They are staying at a posh hotel and having a day at the races today (horse racing) at Newbury, as my uncle really enjoys the horses! The weather is beautiful here this weekend, so it couldn’t be better for them. Looking after Rosie is going to mean virtually no sewing for me as she likes to sit right by my side most of the time – add to that ‘walkies’ and playing with her etc. I also have a friend coming for dinner tonight, so I have some cooking to be thinking about – I’ve made a start on the pudding (I’m making lemon syllabub) yummy!! Isn't it strange: as much as I am a complete chocoholic, my favourite puddings are lemon ones and lemon syllabub has lots and lots of sugar and cream in it – naughty, but nice!!

Anyway, I hope you are all having a great weekend and if in the UK, enjoying this gorgeous sunshine we're having.

Bye for now
