Have you tried making a choc orange and chestnut puree ice-cream-type pudding? Delicious!

The recipe is based on one from a programme on TV (the BBC, I think) from 1995 called Ruth Mott's Country Christmas. We've made it more orange chocolatey! It might be in this book: Ruth Mott's Favourite Recipes 😀

Eva (bookworm_eve) 00:50 Got home from work an hour ago, but it was stressful so I am enjoying some time on GR and with Paolo Nutini in my ears. Will hop in to bed soon, but clear head first!


ReadAlongWithSue recovering from a stroke★⋆. ࿐࿔ Its 20.00 here in the UK, just finished blogging and writing reviews. Only time I have had over the past few days as puppy has just been spayed and needs to be watched constantly, she keeps jumping up on things.

So relaxing here while son and hubby do their turn.

Amber Martingale Wouldn't worry about that, Sue, unless she starts knocking things off with the cone.

12:26 PM Listening to Queen - The Prophet's Song (1975) on YouTube @ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iZjjs... while wading through email and trying to catch up on GR. This one doesn't get nearly the same amount of exposure as Bohemian Rhapsody, even though both are from the same album.

The Prophet's Song was based on a dream Brian May had about Noah's Ark, as you can hear in references to "two by two," "the new green bough" and "wings of the white dove."

Today did one of our Jewellery Stalls for the day..

Was worth it today, really busy, sold a lot.

But always come back shattered.

Up 5.00 am(same time every working day)

Takes up 1 1/2 to set up and an hour to pack, and it's heavy work. Four tables full of jewellery, pin flair, etc... and displays.

This year we have cut down to maybe one or two a month.

Yes a dry day in Jersey yesterday, and again a lovely day today.

Lots of washing out, especially sheets as we make our bed/change the sheets every Sunday.

All just brought in and dry.

Also read my book in the garden and went out for a walk.

Also some gardening, taking out all our onions to dry, and planted more lettuces.

Our melon plants going wild !

Good point, though summer really isn't the best time to line dry from what the weather sounds like!

16:59 Just got this book, can't wait to read it. I've been really working on getting my NetGalley books read and reviews written. I got backlogged and playing catch up isn't fun 😥. Lesson learned, I hope 😋 I've made a goal that I get 10 NetGalley reviews written from today on and then I will treat myself by reading Glass Houses Glass Houses (Chief Inspector Armand Gamache, #13) by Louise Penny by Louise Penny 😳

Well always busy watching tennis, for quite a few hours.

USA Open

With lots of shocks, a massive open draw in the mens.

And now only three ladies that can be number 1 at the end of this tournament?

Gardening and playing tennis.

Five days next week and then off for other week.
