Well we have the black cat..nearly, she is quite dark anyway. What a difference a day makes! it is now a quarter to five and it is getting really dark already. Surprised to see reports on the news about heavy snowstorms on the East Coast of America, there was one lovely picture of a large Pumpkin with all snow on the top. Aaah. I love Halloween over there, es[ecially in the New England area, they really go to town with their decorations. Massive big pumpkins on their porches etc. Ghosts dancing round trees and very inventive decorations. Its lovely.
We went to Crosby Sainsburys this morning, to get our weekly things. Called in at the garden centre over the by-pass on the way home to get our free coffees for the month, and had a good look round their gift centre. The garden centres these days have really excellent gift shops, and this one is particularly good. Vin spotted some lovely letters with writing on them in the french style, white and gold with brownish lettering. I bought a J and V for us, and a J and A for John and Ann. Really pleased with those, till we got them home and found that one of the J's wouldn't stand up. So that will have to go back. Typical. We should have stood them up in the store.
Vin has been up in the loft this afternoon, finishing off his pipe lagging and measuring the rest of the floor for the insulation. I wonder if we will get any trick or treaters this year, we haven't been having them for a good few years now, just the odd one or two.
Tonight we are having:
gruyere cheese escalope
A little pack of vegetables
Some squashed baby potatoes
Maybe some mushroom sauce.
