this morning a colleague brought in some treats, including these delicious purple chips… they come from blue potatoes and she picked them up with me in mind…

  
but, we all loved them… think I am going to have to get more of these, lol…

our yoga instructor brought us some David’s Tea… was very happy as I’ve been wanting to taste some of their Christmas flavours…

 
took this picture off their website… love the box… we tried the chocolate tea this afternoon… very nice…

tonight had a wonderful dinner at The Met... mushroom soup with a sprinkle of toasted wild rice…

  
then chateaubriand with roasted root vegetables, asparagus, and cauliflower with cheese…

 

topped off with my favourite dessert, a delicious creme brûlée…

 
the perfect amount and it was soooo tasty… 
great conversation with lovely people…

a day filled with treats…

woke up early this morning and turned the tv on…

well, tried to turn it on… last night it was working fine, but this morning it is completely dead… sigh… I spend a lot of time on the bed watching it… tried everything I could think of, but nothing worked…

went, did grocery shopping, brought it home and put it all away…

then I rearranged the main floor tv room so that I felt comfortable watching in there…

spent a lot of time in the garden… there are at least two baby goldfish and possibly three… must have sat at the edge of the pond for half an hour watching for them…

  
moved the lounge chair onto the back deck so I could sit in it and watch the bird feeders… might just leave it there…

  
the goldfinches have been around and about… the garden just brightens up when the little flashes of yellow and light green flit past… and I even saw the bunny in the neighbour’s yard… 

much cooler today and sort of overcast, well not sunny, for a good portion of the day…

  
did pick up a few treats for next weekend in case I go camping again with the kids… we all love chips and I got the makings for s’mores… packed them all up in a bag ready to go…

a carton filled with 24 boxes… such fun to open one each day…

this morning I opened box 1 and discovered striped purple socks and a dragonfly stick-on…

wore them when I went for a walk today…

at work I wear sandals and don’t usually wear socks in my boots unless I am going to be doing a lot of walking…

still thinking about where to put the dragonfly…

have enjoyed a couple of lovely treats in the last few days…

while we were on our trip to and from Carberry we stopped at the Robin’s Nest Cafe where we picked up some delicious battered mushrooms…

IMG_9156.JPGwe were very good, and only got one order to share, lol…

today I took leftovers from our Saturday night dinner for my lunch… but one of my colleagues made me a toasted salmon sandwich with avocado and apple…

IMG_9155.JPGwonderful treat…

I brought in the last of the Halloween hands to share…

it is quite amazing how the simplest things can make your day…

lovely treats today…

over the noon hour went to the Farmers’ Market located downtown with a colleague and enjoyed our time together… and all the great produce we found…

I picked up baby potatoes, dill, yellow and green beans, baby cucumbers, some fun breads, bison meat and peas… I was so happy about the peas because I was thinking they might already be finished… I love peas…

last thing was a bouquet of yellow lilies which I picked up for my daughter…

20140731-234254-85374172.jpgon my way home stopped in at my daughter’s new office with the flowers and some peas for her family…

was picked up by my friend and we went to aquasize which was another treat…

went out for supper and another friend who I haven’t seen for ages met us there…

20140731-234547-85547512.jpgtasted a tofu dish that was delicious, lol… who knew…

as we were getting into the car spotted a cute little bunny… then home for tea and a visit…

this morning I put on my newest dragonfly… it was a gift from one of our group who spent some time in Cuba recently…

20140422-214158.jpglooks lovely and was a great treat…

often when we pick up a treat for one another we kind of have one person in mind for each item, but we usually put them out for everyone to choose… usually the right person gets the treat we had imagined they would like… of course we have been together for close to thirty years…

mid-morning my son-in-law arrived with treats that the Easter Bunny left for me at their house…

20140422-220155.jpgmight have eaten a few of them this evening…
