Torrential rain seems to have moved in and the cottage looked dark and slightly depressing after the sun of yesterday.
I have switched on the gay pink flamingos in the kitchen and everything looks slightly more cheerful.
I am making bolognese
We have only had one bit of excitement this morning as Mary careered around the house yelping like a puppy.
She had trapped her head inside a plastic coat hanger!

Vile weather here too in the Midlands; summer seems to have disappeared altogether these days - my birthday in June used to be boiling hot weather - now I just get used to pottering off to the pub to celebrate in the showers. Global warming? - I won't say a word about POTUS.
ReplyDeleteNo rain here yet but very windy and Spag bol here for tea too
ReplyDeleteI'm impressed with your ability to take a sour day and sweeten it with pink flamingos and bolognese, even Mary refuses to get"hung up" on gloomy weather!
ReplyDeleteAlways look on the bright side
DeleteWe look set for a downpour here in the south after a gorgeous weekend. Sweet Mary made me smile. Warming chilli for supper xx
ReplyDeleteIt rained almost every day in May....so maybe it's gone far enough East to leave us alone for a while...Here in Kansas it can be muddy one day and cracks in the ground the next. Ever changing!
ReplyDeleteHow did Mary manage that !
ReplyDeleteThe prof left it on the couch this morning
DeleteMost dogs have some hang-ups!
ReplyDeleteI love storms if they're not big enough to be hurricanes. I like the dark coziness inside and it gives me permission to lay about and read.
ReplyDeleteWhy did Mary stick her head through the hanger? Any idea?
Because she could! She is hyperactive most of the time, if shes not on the go chewing she's chewing winnie's face
DeleteOh poor little Mary ... how in the world ??
ReplyDeleteIt is dark and gloomy in Florida ... what in the world ?? Florida is not supposed to be dark and gloomy ! That's why people live here .. feh .. I am going back to NY . or some little village somewhere ..
Rain here too - even in the east.
ReplyDeleteSend some of that bolognese over by e mail - I am finding it such a chore to cook for one.
Weaver, me too. The best solution I have found so far is to cook for however many, as usual when there was more than one person eating .. then put the rest in the freezer .. you never have to cook every single night if you do it that way.

Sending you a big hug weaver
DeletePlastic coat hangers? Really? Courgette carbonara here tonight. Alas, I have no pink flamingos to switch on.
ReplyDeleteObviously plastic coat hangers are a no no
DeleteTrust a dog to brighten up your day.
ReplyDeleteThere was I thinking you would use better quality coathangers. X
ReplyDeleteThow very dare you
Deletehahaha....mary looks so cute with a hanger hat!
ReplyDeleteThat Mary.....Ms. Crawford, meanwhile, would be relieved to see it's not a wire hanger.
ReplyDelete" I'm not mad at youuuuuuuu! I'm mad at the dirt!"
DeleteOh my . . . poor Mary . . .
ReplyDeleteShe looks quite colorful!
raining here too...and no pretty pink flamingo lights...silly mary!
ReplyDeleteShe has been chewing coal again too
Deleteewwww; that CANNOT be good for such a sweet girl!
DeleteLooks like rain here too. Greetings.
ReplyDeleteRain all afternoon.......BUT AT LEAST IVE LOST 3 lbs at fat club
DeleteYou LOST? Even though you went away? Well done.
DeleteAck, Mary! Tell John to put the camera down and release you from the torture device! :)
ReplyDeleteDays that are dreary can be turned around by cooking or baking, extra light and pets, but it can take work.
I cleaned the silver too!
DeletePink flamingos would brighten the darkest day.
ReplyDeleteOur cats have reacted the same way to plastic bags. Where are those regularly videoed animals that just sit there calmly and wait for someone to free them?
ReplyDeletePiddling down and blowing a hoolie here on the east coast.
ReplyDeletePuppies and toddlers always find some random object to get stuck in. Mary looks a bit subdued waiting to be freed. She's a sweetie.
Oh Mary - how embarrassing! I thought it was summer in the UK? It's 11 degrees here and wet, so we're hugging heaters, but at least it's supposed to be winter here so we shouldn't moan too much... not that that stops us!
ReplyDeleteDoesn't she know that coat hangers on heads went out of fashion months ago?
ReplyDeleteEvery home should have gay pink flamingos, although saying that .... I have battery operated gold coloured balls on the front of the kitchen shelves :-)
