A Quite Night In...

It's Saturday night...
A quite night in...
Sitting on my bed with new, second hand laptop in hand...
It feels strange begin able to blog from just about anywhere...
Maybe it will make me more spontaneous...like now...
Just writing for the sake of it...No particular reason...Just to say "hi"...

We had silver side with white sauce and veggies for dinner...
It took ages to make and 5 minutes to eat...
Dinner always takes longer in our house...With no working stove...
My fabby buy of the new Baby Belling wasn't fabby after all...
Maybe they didn't have as many appliances in the 50's like we do now...
All I know is that the minute I plug in the Baby Belling it short circuits everything in a 40mile radius...
So I am back to microwaving and frypaning everything...
Seriously...if there were more take-away shops in our town I would eat out...
But back to reality...We did have our own corn and pumpkin from the garden...Now that makes it all worth it...Healthy homegrown veggies just make you feel like you have achieved something...

However simple and fast it is eaten...It is just...special...

The weather has been rather steamy...33degrees today...
I think a bit of rain wouldn't go astray...the ground is suddenly cracking before our eyes...
and the garden needs watering every afternoon...
I do like that time of day thou..Pottering around as the sun goes down...watering, sitting,talking...

planning what to do and dreaming of what we would love to do...

Do you do that...sit and chat...about stuff that will probably never happen...
the dream...
It's nice to have dreams...and people to share silly ideas with...
I am just very lucky that I have someone that likes to have creative dreams and doesn't feel bad if the don't every come true...thou I do hope the dream of a stove does come true...

whatever your dream is I hope at least some of them come true...or you have someone that enjoys the process of planning the dream...

Thanks for listening...to me on my quite night in...

  1. I loved reading your thoughts about life and your day. Now I´m thankful that I have a stove and know that there are people out there who also have silly dreams and love to dream on even if the dreams might never come true...

  2. It's lovely to dream a while and like you I'm lucky enough to have a perfect dreaming partner. We plan and invent and create and while away the hours and some things come true and some don't, and we laugh at the craziness of life. Loved your quiet night in, happy dreaming.

  3. Hello there!

    What a fabby blog :)

    I'd love for you to pop over to mine and enter a little vintage & handmade giveaway I'm having. Due to being a little poorly, I have extended it until this evening.
