Bowl

 


My sister Janet has made Roger a glazed food bowl at pottery and dropped it off this afternoon when I was snoozing before nights. 
It’s rather handsome
I won’t show the reading glasses thoughtfully delivered by Amazon roughly at the same time as they are tiny and make me look like a caricature of a Japanese WW2 soldier.
I’m watching Hitchcock’s Lifeboat with a bucket of coffee before nights

  1. Oh, lucky Roger to have his own bespoke bowl made by his "auntie". I'm sure he'll love it just as much as I do. The paw print is the icing on the cake! Do show us the new reading glasses, I'm sure we could all do with a giggle!🥸 xx

  7. The bowl is beautiful! You need a flower jug in that same blue speckly glaze! // Will you return the glasses? Maybe measure a pair that fits right and check before ordering again? I still think you also need a classy properly fitted pair of glasses from the optician for outings and dates. Good accessories are so important when you have gravy stains on your t shirt....

    The bowl is lovely. Intrigued to know how Amazon "thoughtfully" delivered your parcel!

    1. It wasn’t thrown by the front door but was placed carefully inside my post box , the one that stops the postman getting his fingers nipped

    Janet is so talented! That bowl is perfect, and the paw print in the base will be a source of extra attention for Roger . Have you continued with the chessmen?

  14. Roger's new personal bowl is super cute. Janet is very clever and most thoughtful. She must love Roger just like the rest of us. Toss those glasses out. You do not need to see yourself wearing glasses that are not flattering.
