ME ON MONDAY

I'm joining the 'MONDAY WAVERS' again today........another brainchild of the lovely SIAN.





Doing a bit of 'Google Translating' in preparation for our Intercambio session tonight.....a group of we English speakers get together once a week with a group of Spanish ladies to try to talk to each other in each other's language...the result can be pretty hilarious!!



The weekend?.....there was dinner with friends, food shopping, laundry, a little garden tidying....and SCRAPPING!









The credit for the title of this layout must go to RUTH, who left a comment on my FIVE FAVOURITES FOR JANUARY  post......she mentioned BFG and my mind immediately went to the Roald Dahl book....and I couldn't think what she was talking about! When I realised that she was actually talking about the Black Forest Gateau, I knew I had my title...thanks Ruth!


Unfortunately, by last night dad was back in hospital so it's likely to be an anxious week again...hope yours isn't!

Thanks for dropping by!
take care of you
Alison xx

  17. Now that Blogger is currently letting me comment, I'm on a roll! I love that you used BFG for the title ... that was what we used to call it when I was a kid and I suppose I presumed that everyone else called it that as well!
