Out for Coffee...

Arrived at Dobbies to the strains of Peggy Lee singing "Black Coffee" on the radio. very appropriate. She had one amazing voice that lady. Then we had a conversation about plastic surgery..shame what she did.
Dobbies is getting ready for christmas, with the trees and decorations going up everywhere. The food hall has all the Christmassy food out,and you can't move for decorations and cards. VT got some bulbs for planting,some nice little dwarf ones for the pots. I resisted the urge to get anything today. Very restrained.
Called in at Waitrose on the way back, we wanted to get some coffee beans, and I wanted some lettuce. Got those plus a few other things, treated the cats to some chicken, and new cat food in little tins that were on offer. Their shopping came to more than ours!
Just home in time for lunch, no post, that arrived mid afternoon!!
The books from The Book People arrived this morning, but I am still waiting for my QVC thing. Definitely something wrong with the post these days..mid afternoon delivery just isn't good enough really. Remember the days when the post arrived before you got up, then you got a midday post as well!!
Tonight we are having:
Cheese and onion crispbake,
Potatoes sliced and sauteed,
Beans carrots and butternut squash.
