How beautiful Chooky, to a city dweller, love the shearing, used to get a fleece occasionally to spin, want to go back to that again, need to do a refresher course ;) Have a great day, hope you get some rain

Yummy baking - i'm sure much appreciated. Always makes the house smell lovely! Great succulent too. I have only five in a pot, taking off now....after a hard beginning with the dog getting into the pot once or twice. And rain would be great!

Miriam said...

Great photos!!! I love scones, but mine never work very well! :(

No frosts here yet, but it is certainly cooler in the mornings.

Hope you get some rain soon.

Elle vais être bientôt chez vous.
Merci de partager. Bonne Journée.
