SOCK MONKEY

This morning the sky is grey. Drizzle and low cloud are holding onto the fumes from the cars and I am longing for the scent of evergreens and incense. Alt text says this week’s photo is a stuffed animal on a tree. I say it is sock monkey. He was a ‘makey-makey gift’ that IContinue reading “SOCK MONKEY”

A CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH SPRINKLES

Today rain and mist hold the scent of damp fallen leaves in the air. Alt text says this week’s photo is a chocolate cake with sprinkles on the top. It is indeed. And to add to this description I would also say it is a birthday cake for my lovely wife. For this bake, IContinue reading “A CHOCOLATE CAKE WITH SPRINKLES”

PLAY

TWO SISTERS AND A COW

This morning the air brings the distinct smell of cut grass. The birds have turned up their dawn chorus songs these last few days and are welcoming the mornings with a vigour that is admirable. Alt text tells me this week’s photo is ‘two women taking a selfie in front of a cow’. I sayContinue reading “TWO SISTERS AND A COW”

WALKING WITH MY SHADOW

This morning the cat from across the road sings me three hellos while the air brings us gentle elements of spring. Alt Text says this week’s photo is a shadow of a person on a road. I say this is me out on the country lane walking with my shadow. I liked the length ofContinue reading “WALKING WITH MY SHADOW”

A MARMALADE SANDWICH WITH PADDINGTON

This morning the air has been blown to freshness by the strong winds, and I love alt text’s suggestion for this week’s photo: A person sitting on a bench with a bear and a cookie! When I heard that a Paddington Bear bench had been installed in Chester I was excited to go and seeContinue reading “A MARMALADE SANDWICH WITH PADDINGTON”
