Good evening my Busy Friends.
How are you all? I'm good, although the weekend seems to have gone so quickly! I'm doing my normal Sunday night ritual - waiting for Waking The Dead to start, watching rubbish on the TV, until it comes on. I'm sooo full - Ilook forward to Sunday lunch so much and I'm so hungrey and then when I finally come round to eating it, I feel totally and utterly stuffed afterwards!
It's like the day after a night out when you say 'I'm never drinking again!' and then of course you end up reaching for the wine two days later. Well, that 's how I feel now - like I'm never going to be able to eat again. But, my God, Sunday lunches are good - if you're a vegetarain and don't like meat, it still applies, because in my book, roast dinners are all about the potatoes. Oh dear, I'm making myself feel even worse talking about it!
It's still a bit odd though, isn't it? Eating a roast dinner on the 21st July. But, that's what I felt like - I came in with my hair blowing all over my face, covered in mud from Tatton Park Flower Show and I felt like a good old roast. The weather is really messing with my head.
Tell you what though - Tatton Flower show was good. I really enjoyed the displays - it's really quite amazing what people can come up with in 3 weeks - that's how long they have to plant their feature gardens on site. I just couldn't believe that all the beautiful gardens they had planted would be ripped out tomorrow when the show finishes. Just imagine that - you've grown these beautiful shrubs and have this perfect result from your laborious hard work and then 5 days later, you pull it all down.
The place does look fantastic though - even through the mud and the splodges of rain, it looked beautiful. My favourite displays were those which looked like meadows of wild flowers - long rushes and leggy poppies, beautiful mauve and blue cornflowers - they were totally stunning.
Anyhow Busy Girls, I'd better get back to my old TV programme - I've missed the start! Will catch you later
Lots of love
Eva xx
