Night-time craving after having the evening meal can be disastrous to all the day's effort. I have often looked in the fridge, freezer and pantry cupboard around eight o'clock at night. Today was one of those days. My chocolate craving was at its worst. Grapes, honey with yoghurt, fruit juice nothing was helping. I simply … Continue reading Mochi
:-)Brings a smile.
Eighty-Five-year-old, always enthusiastic and texts immediately. I asked how he was doing since I hadn't spoken to him for the past few weeks, as I was away.

When the meeting was finished, I left without eating as … Continue reading Stillness when busy.

There is a coffee/ ice cream shop called Suggits. Inevitably there are long queues outside so out of our reach. We always walk past. But we … Continue reading Life is a dream!
