I am not a happy camper, but it does give us something to talk about. We can all gripe about the weather. It's always a thankful subject for discussion.Irenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05043376053971475659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076712181904223864.post-34826969257781483402009-03-24T16:57:00.000+01:002009-03-24T16:57:00.000+01:00I'm glad you're having such a good time with clay....I'm glad you're having such a good time with clay. Sorry your weather turned on you, but that's what weather does, eh? We had a bit of rain, but now it's bright and cold. I have three iris blooming.

We're not having any wind here, but gray skies out of which it sometimes rains and even hailed once. Luckily, that was over fast and I wasn't out in it. Just missed it by a few minutes. <BR/><BR/>Jeanette, I bought beschuit when I was at the store just now, but I was able to resist the chocoladevlokken. I can't eat them right now. I have to loose 9 kilos. Then I will have them again, because boy, do I love them.Irenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05043376053971475659noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076712181904223864.post-44110469525535167022009-03-24T09:59:00.000+01:002009-03-24T09:59:00.000+01:00Irene, I had to get back to you - haha, you figure...Irene, I had to get back to you - haha, you figured out my breakfast :) I hope I never have to give that up!Jeannette StGhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07951617490107614687noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076712181904223864.post-72991051320439379732009-03-24T09:57:00.000+01:002009-03-24T09:57:00.000+01:00Irene - first off - love the picture, reminded me ...Irene - first off - love the picture, reminded me of a church stained glass window. Haven't been to the grocery store either suddenly life is hectic again, with real estate taking off while still temping, roll on Friday. Unlike you I am up too early, having a quick cuppa, a bit of blogging and hopefully one more snooze before I have to get up. Hoping its a little warmer here too today after a lovely weekend we had a biting wind here yesterday. Have a great Tuesday.softintheheadhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01365562754859033869noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9076712181904223864.post-7033221916259533532009-03-24T08:08:00.000+01:002009-03-24T08:08:00.000+01:00Maggie, I'm sure with some practice you would do f...Maggie, I'm sure with some practice you would do fine with clay too.

I made a nest with a little bird on it and it looked as though a two year old had made it. Ha ha!<BR/>Hope you managed to keep the mackerel where it was supposed to be, last night!
