It's so cute seeing the little children in their costumes, halloween is just catching on over here.I don't think they they go tricker treating, they just all looked delighted to have costumes on.
We walked and walked and walked again today.Advice: get in shape before you travel to europe! I'v had aches where I wouldn't even tell you I had aches! We havn't been pushing ourselves and really havn't seen tons of sights but are enjoying the atmosphere and people. We've been so blessed, no rain yet (last night and alittle this a.m.)It was suppose to rain all week-end. Tomarrow we take the train to Bath, hopefully our luck will continue.
We love the hostel, the people are so nice and helpful and the breakfasts(free) are to die for.Sausage,bacon,ham,fried tomatoes and mushrooms, baked beans,eggs, cereal,yogart,fruit,all kinds of juice. It's been wonderful to start out the day with a full tummy.
Today we went to the market on Porabello Road (notting hill, bedknobs and broomsticks)It was awesome, lots of people.Also found a bee store that me friend told us about last night. It made Rachel happy!
Well, I think I'll put my aching bones to bed. goodnight sleeptight

    so glad you guys are having a great time. I think that is how I would want to spend my trip, too. No so much sight seeing, but experiencing the country. Take lots of pictures!

 I've always had a bird feeder, for years now. They bring alot of joy to me, nature so up close and personal. Now that we don't have any pets, we've loved having our bird feeders up again. We have this one tree out back and we have a little of everything for them. A little bird bath, three feeders and a suet feeder. There's usually ten to twenty birds in the tree at all times. Lots of beautiful finches, lots of yard birds, lots of black birds (who are quite noisy) red wing black birds and yellow headed black birds. We finally identified one that we couldn't figure out and its a Evening Grosbeak. Some come and we never see them again, just passing through. But, it's our little obsession right now, gives me something to do every morning. But, dang those birds are eating us out of house and home!

 chop, chop, chop were the sounds I woke up too yesterday. I've been hearing those sounds alot these last few weeks as my manly man has made hot sauce and salsa galore. But..............this morning it was different. I woke up to a beautiful bowl of tabbouleh...my favorite salad. The combination of the bulgar, parsley, cucumber and tomatoes just tickles my palet. My favorite part this time of the year are the pomegranate seeds, they add such color and flavor.(I really shouldn't be eating it but I chewed extra well ummm) Oooops a jar of grape juice just broke, manly man is canning....be right back. O.K. that's cleaned up and I'm heading out for a long overdue walk. It's a lovely day, blue skies and sun.

all is well

My daughter Becky should be home from the hospital soon, her surgery went well. Next the mourning for what was and will never be again, she had a lot of good cries last night. They weighed the breast and it was seven and a half pounds! I knew it was close to ten. Like she said jokingly she was looking forward to getting "alot off her chest". When I talked to her on the phone this morning I asked her how in the world did she ever get anything done with a two year old and 5mon. old! I did manage to get us all clean and fed by eleven. Is that good? And to think I raised six! Todays is Becky's Abbie's birthday, we hope to go to the movies this afternoon. I guess on the way home from the hospital they are picking up a new kitty for the children. They had promised them one when they moved in to their house, so how wonderful of them to realize what a good time it would be to bring one home. My children are so wise in so many things.Well........baby calls! Happy Day to you a
