Thank you SO MUCH, Santa, for my delicious coffee selection, and even more so for your lovely note that Larissa passed on last night.
I can't wait to sample them all!
As you can see, Zelda also approves. More than she approves of the rain outside impeding the start of her day.

When you see this, skeet a pic from your gallery to describe your current mental health.

I flippin wish! Ha ha.

A nice little haul from Ted's garden this afternoon - I planted everything except the beans!

The radishes proper radishes, with heat, not like those weak-sauce ones you get at the supermarket.

All the spinach has gone into a tasty little Spanakorizo to accompany some Greek chicken thighs. Yum!

I have upped my seasonal festoonery with solar lights in my tiny townhouse garden!
Lights, that flash on request, and stars on sticks! Vulgar consumerism, but hey ho.
How very festive!
And quite clearly it helped Santa to find my place for delivery! 🎄😍🎉

I seem to have inadvertently chosen a purple theme in my tiny garden this year.
Odd.

##SecretSantaAoNZ here's the extent of my festive festoonery at home: last year's KMart double star extravaganza, with new batteries.
It's pretty much all I have room for!
I like it that it's made of a wood-ish product and is simple and reusable.

From my garden armchair. It's amazing what you can achieve in the tiniest of spaces.
Tomatoes, sugar snaps peas, sage, oregano, thyme, mint, lobelia, alyssum. 😍🫛🍅

The *good* thing about having a cat who loves to wake you up at ungodly hours is seeing this just now.
Wow. Taken through the insect screen in my boudoir.

Zelda has a new favourite hang out - one of the outside chairs, right outside the lounge where she can keep an eye on me. Great scratching fabric, too.
It's so warm here tonight!

OMG the font!!!!
As if I wasn't freaking out enough about the bloody colposcopy!

Today I've eaten my lunch at Beach Grove in Kaiapoi at the GH show home there.
Mexican Chicken Salad: baby spinach, bbq'd chicken, black beans, corn, radishes, red capsicum, red onion, cucumber, coriander, jalapeños, cumin, olive oil, lemon juice.
A very good time was had by my taste buds.

I share my house with the gorgeous Miss Zelda Clarke, aged 2.5 years. She's a cheeky little minx and I love her deeply.

This is she. 🐈‍⬛😍❤️

Can't even express the SQUEEEEE.
Zelda just brought her comfort toy, the fluffy she came home from the SPCA with - 2.5 years ago - clomp, clomp, clomp down the stairs, miaowing with it in her mouth, so she can knead it on the couch with me.
Does it GET any cuter?? 🐈‍⬛😍🥹

Best time of the year. 🍽

Grilled Indian spiced chicken thighs on lightly-saffroned rice, with minty cucumber yoghurt & salad.
It was good. 🍽
