What Larks Pip


The oddity that is the kitchen wall was underlined this morning by a plastic container full of Indian “ nibbles” complete with raita! 
No name, but a yellow post it instructing me to Enjoy! 
I’m on three nights and a favourite patient of mine passed away last night, so the treat was welcomed warmly.

What larks Pip!

    That is a treat to warm both your heart and your tummy. A Sunday Surprise to make the weekend special and lift the spirits after a sad shift. Makes you realise with a bit of a rush that real joy comes in the small things. But most of all - that you are loved and cared for, John Gray! So take a moment to bask in the mellow warmth of it.

  3. Your magic kitchen wall does serve up some treats! There are people in your village (and way beyond) who care about you and know your tastes!
    So sorry about your patient. I know it comes with the job, but sometimes it hurts more than others. Hugs. xx

  5. If that's all veggie, as I suspect it might well be, I'm already mouth-watering in anticipation of it being so.

  7. So many nice things have been left on your kitchen wall by villagers and by you yourself. Is it the wall that Humpty Dumpty sat upon?

    Sorry to hear about the passing of someone you cared for. Never easy for anyone. Suffering being over is a relief for them.
