365/231 Circular

Well once again I refer to my library and a circular plate with a bunch of gorgeous circular butterfly cakes JB made a while ago.. funny really as ever since I prepped this entry I have encountered all things circular... melon, dishes, glasses, cups, plates, tomatoes, radishes... oh dear it was cicular sensory overload but still I stayed with this pic..

..having a lazy Saturday here, out early to help Kate pick up a bearded dragon for her b/f's birthday... off to the fish and reptile shop.. oooowwwhh.. reptiles.. all dark corners and humidity, not my cup of tea at all.   Then we bought crickets for it to eat, I kept guard on the dragon in its little tupperware box (with holes of course..) while she got a bag from Pets@Home .. we laughed as I asked if they were alive, she said yes, in a box.. and we imagined a plastic bag ofcrickets jumping about inside.. funny moments we wil remember.

Everyone else is busy, I was dead tired and even left Col and his Dad to go check the boat and then slept on the sofa, I guess life is busy in a different kind of way to when the children were small.. and some weeks there is no let up..

Been chatting about Zac quite  a bit, looking forward to him being home and in our time zone til next may. The girls back to college and school, the status quo is resumed..

Oh I am the worst mother too.. forgot to tell you that JB got 2 A's in her AS Photography and Graphics, her two pet sublects and 2 D's in English and Business, her less pet like subjects!  She is on English for Yr2 and also doing Fine Art, but the latest word from the kitchen is her thoughts of a Patisserie Apprenticeship... mmm, creative bunny that she is, it's just so good the options are endless..xx

  1. Well done JB :D Great results and in such a range too! Patisserie sounds good too, do what you love and it's never a job, right?

    Lizards, dark creepy reptile places? Well done you for even venturing in there!

    Good to hear about chats with Zac, and it is getting on for home-time yes? xxx

  2. Oh, well done her on the results front, great. Those cakes are sooo pretty, I haven't seen these for years! Oliver is started to bang on about lizards and whatnot (whatever whatnot might turn out to be) for Christmas when he is 'older'. He is thinking 11, I am thinking 32 ha ha.

I am hoping that 'Anonymous' has stopped stalking me with his Spam now, but may have to put verification back on if it comes back.. I just can't buy any more over the counter drugs or Louis V handbags girls!! ;-)
