Did'ya ever have one of those mornings, where you woke up and thought...
'How am I ever going to get through today?'
No, me neither.
H's Birthday ended on a high note, with good food, plenty of wine, very good company and a very nice brandy.
We were the last to leave, but it didn't matter, you only have a birthday once a year after all - for which we can all be thankful for anyway. Birthdays here in Ediger-Eller, are very important - on our way back home from the meal last night, we were fiddling with the key in the front-door lock...
'Ye didn't drop it again did ye....'
When we saw that a present had been left on the front door step - a bowl of local fruit, just ripening now, and a bottle of Herb Likör. There were mirabelles and they were Divine (sorry Darlings, but there's no other word....) and the likör was good too. It's meant to be drunk after eating a big meal, so tied in very well with the evening.
And this afternoon, as we walked up the steps to the front-door, there was a basket of peaches and jars of preserves and jams, along with a nice card....
So how's the painting going in between the Birthday?
I'm.... finding out me fine brush,
Startin' on the white fur,
Paintin' in the tail,
The fur takes ages to do, so the changes will only be small over the next few days, even though there's a lot of time involved....
Update on Frankie's Ears.
Better than they were.
We got through Today.
Tschüss!!
