This week for https://fromcavewalls.wordpress.com/2022/10/20/throwback-thursday-60-hello-goodbye/ is all about family. 1. Did you live close by or far away from close family or grandparents? My dad was fifty when I was born, and my mum thirty-eight. I was a late baby, a little bit of an accident, and Mum thought she was going through her menopause. IContinue reading “In The Past”

Comfort Food
The word soup from https://weeklyprompts.com/2022/10/19/weekly-prompts-wednesday-challenge-soup/ and it the perfect word for winter. I love a good soup. Whether it be the homemade kind or the type you buy in a tin. My daughter makes the best tomato soup (Slimming world style) and you can’t tell the difference between that and tinned. The only difference isContinue reading “Comfort Food”
Going Shopping
This week’s https://pensitivity101.wordpress.com/2022/10/17/share-your-world-improvised-just-in-case/ and I always love answering the questions. 1. When you go food shopping, do you go with a list or amble down the aisles putting things in your basket or cart that you fancy or think you need? I should take a list, because at my age, I am getting forgetful aboutContinue reading “Going Shopping”
Health or Money?
For https://lifeafter50forwomen.com/category/sunday-poser/ Health is something more important than money, but it is best we have a bit of both. You can have all the money, but you cannot take it with you when we die. I do think those with enough in their banks could be able to take some of the strain of thoseContinue reading “Health or Money?”
Over That Rainbow
October 15th and my pictures today are of a rainbow I saw on my way home from shopping. I wonder if there is a pot of gold at the end of this colourful display. There was also a full rainbow, but I wasn’t able to take a picture. I love seeing a rainbow, as itContinue reading “Over That Rainbow”
Pumpkins – October 9
Today’s picture is of some pumpkins I knitted a few years ago. When my granddaughter was born nearly three years ago, I decided I should start knitting. I since found out the only things I can knit well are blankets. I first knitted Christmas decorations, as at the time my dog tended to eat anything,Continue reading “Pumpkins – October 9”
October 8th – Rainy Day
October 8th and my picture today is actually from yesterday. I took the picture, while my husband was driving to shopping. We get a lot of rain in the UK. Even with our two-week drought in the summer, even the mention of that word and it rained the next day. There is something comforting aboutContinue reading “October 8th – Rainy Day”
Day Six – October Pic
An October photograph, but not this year. This is me on an indoor parachute jump. It was a weird sensation, and I wasn’t that far off the ground, but I loved having the experience of floating on air. One day I will do the real thing.
Throwback Thursday – Childhood
This week’s prompt for Throwback Thursday is: Family Meal Rituals. https://fromcavewalls.wordpress.com/author/magcindy/ has given us a cause to remember our childhood. I loved her food stories, and pancakes with syrup is a favourite of mine. Let’s start at the top of the day, breakfast! Did your family have a sit down breakfast or were you more grabContinue reading “Throwback Thursday – Childhood”
Day Five – October
For October 5th I have posted my bowl, which I painted in a pottery centre near where I live. I wanted to do the Marauders Map, but what was in my head didn’t quite make it to the bowl. I even had to ask my daughter to show me the footprints. On the inside IContinue reading “Day Five – October”
