Happy Happy Birthday to our Elodie Mardi, 6 years old today and heading off to play her first soccer game with the Devils!
P.S. When speaking with Elodie this morning she told me she'd had Pancakes with Lemon and Sugar for breakfast.... my very favourite and something I haven't enjoyed for many years... so what's a Penniedarling to do eh???
Yes! Enjoy a pancake or two, with Lime instead of Lemon... Yum!

Lovely catchup today with a couple of friends we knew from our children's Primary School.
We last saw Jo and David Hind at the local schools 100 year Celebration in 2014, and I can't remember the last time we saw Sheila Cooksey who moved to Perth many years ago.

Happy Happy Birthday to our Charlie Ripley!
This super duper cool lad is 16 today! Wow! How did that happen so fast!
Below, Charlie's 2nd Birthday Cake, he looks a bit concerned doesn't he...
And he had every reason to worry...
Penniedarling don't you know that Rocket cakes go up in the air, not down.

Well this isn't a fork I eat with but it's very good when we light the fire and need to move around some of the woods in there.
This fork was made by David's Uncle Keith in Carmel, California. Keith made lots of wonderful things like this.Sunday, April 24, 2022
