It was pretty delicious! We were famished after seeing the lawyer and doctor for my immigration stuff, and went to this Greek restaurant to celebrate. 😊

It’s half a lemon, wrapped in cheesecloth so the seeds don’t get into the food when you squeeze it. 🙂

Try some of that sauerkraut warmed and on a really good German bockwurst in a hotdog bun. Best hotdog you’ll ever have. 😊

Maybe she’s a very specific and hitherto undiscovered type of black hole - one that absorbs just cat treats instead of everything else? 😆

I like so many of those - our shared eclectic taste in music is one of many things I appreciate about you! Thanks for your list. 🥰

They’re PG Tips so not my favourite, but at least they have a reasonable amount of Assam and make a decently strong mug. 😆

And the same right back at you, lovely…with the exception of a husband spoiling you rotten. 😆 We’re having a very quiet one this year as we’ve both been under the weather, but it’s a luxury just to be together. I miss you! 🥰💕

Aww, this really made me smile! That was a lovely brunch, and it’s always fantastic to have a good catch up with you. 🥰

I remember thinking “OOF! He’s heavy, I should move him. But…so floofy and snuggly! He can stay. I don’t need blood flow in my legs.” 😆

I was playing Let It Bee and singing along to the whole album whilst forcing a very stubborn piece of hard maple to do as it was told. Good way to spend a few hours! 😃

It’s all just distraction - anything to give Trump and Musk more time to take over the federal purse strings and government, and dismantle any mechanisms to stop them from having completely unchecked power for the foreseeable future.
Musk bought the US for a relative pittance.

I used to know a guy with the most beautiful, sweet-natured Samoyed. When he was a puppy, he was an adorable little white kooshball who’d do anything to sit on your lap. When he was fully grown…he was an adorable giant white kooshball who’d do anything to sit on your lap. 😆 Gorgeous dogs.

I’m having such a lovely time with you here! And I keep laughing at you setting off all the dancing bear toys in Santa Cruz. 😆

Do you think he has any idea that the only time NATO’s collective defence principle has been used was after 9/11, to protect America? 🙄

We already had this conversation, and how it’s lucky I’m not fussy about gender. 😆

I’m really sorry for your country and its people. There’s much to love about the US, so I’m sorry you’re currently such a laughing stock - and a grave concern - to the rest of the world. I hope things get better soon.

I love this - that streak of (traffic) silver through the landscape is just icing on a very beautiful, very moody cake.

Not if it’s Jim Carrey looking for me, I’m not. 😉

Thankfully, a very Scottish American. Not that it’s stopped me ribbing him about it all day. 😆
