Aussie Mother's Day

These flowers arrived today from my darling Aussie daughter and her partner.

They are beautiful and the stocks smell divine.

And inside the box are scrumptious marbled ruby and white chocolate blondies

😋

My daughter and I are being taken out to lunch to Cosy Club. My daughter took me there for my birthday a couple of years ago. It's a lovely place, a combination of art deco with a feel of Cuba. Last time we went they did a fabulous cherry bakewell cocktail, I hope it's still on the menu 😋 

My lovely daughter and son-in-law have bought me a Kindle.

Enjoy your day.

Aussie Mother's Day

Before I get to the flowers, I've just opened Blogger and ........ meltdown ........ it's different ......... I don't like change, but I will have to get used to it. I still don't like change though!

Anyway, a couple of days late but here are the beautiful flowers my beautiful Aussie daughter sent me.

It wasn't until I took them out of the box that I noticed the cute little bees on the cellophane wrapper.

My daughter and I aren't doing anything this year,
we just didn't plan anything for yesterday,
and she is working today, so it's just another day, which is fine.

My daughter made this beautiful picture for me.
I got some flowers and my favourite Lindt chocolates from my grandson.  
My Ozzie daughter phoned this morning.
I've mowed the lawn and done some gardening
after making a good start on pruning and tidying yesterday
and later we're all going to have a take-away.

Happy Mother's Day 

to all the wonderful, loving, caring Mums
My daughter and I celebrated Mother's Day yesterday, and I'm glad we did because today's weather is overcast and chilly. Yesterday was beautiful, sunny and warm. 
My daughter treated me to a day in Canterbury

 browsing, shopping

soaking up the atmosphere

and a scrumptious cream tea at a lovely hotel restaurant

and of course no day out would be complete without a visit to one of my favourite shops!

And today I received this beautiful flower basket from my darling grandson.

Mother's Day, Teeth and Gifts

I had a good mother's day with some lovely presents - smellies and a lovely pretty keyring from my daughter, and a gorgeous soft teddy bear with "Best Gran Ever" bracelet round his arm from my darling grandson.
My daughter took me to lunch a couple of days beforehand because she had forgotten to book anywhere, so last Thursday we went to one of my favourite lunch venues. My grandson had had a pupil assessment meeting that morning, he had glowing reports from his teachers so it was a combined early Mother's day and "Well Done Mr Teen" lunch.  
Most of yesterday was spent sitting in the garden with family enjoying lovely warm weather. I can't sit for long though before thinking, "that needs pruning", or "that bit needs tidying" so up I get up and reach for the secateurs. I'm my own worst enemy!

I've been eating way too many hot cross buns, I love them.

On the same day as our lunch I had a check up at the dentist while my daughter was at school with my grandson. My dentist was pleased but made, in her words, "one minor observation" two molar teeth, one at each side of my mouth, or to be more precise, the gums around the molar teeth, are slightly inflamed, due to me not cleaning thoroughly up to the gum area. Both are crowned and I'm not getting into the tiny gap between the crown and gum. So following instructions I have been more diligent, actually ruthless to the extent whereby they are hurting ever so slightly, but my dentist did say not to worry if they bleed a bit, it will take a few days for the inflammation to subside, mmm sounds like a line from a comedy film!

A parcel of goodies is on its way to my daughter and her partner in Australia. Some Easter eggs, Lindt bunnies, a huge bar of Cadbury's milk chocolate, star mix, soft drumsticks and some marshmallows. I think they are all available over there now but are quite expensive, so I send a few each year, I enjoy sending them, and my daughter loves receiving them.

Today's weather is warm and sunny so I am going to sit in the garden. I wonder how long I can last before spotting something that needs tidying or pruning! :-)

HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY
