I tend to cook sumptuous as I have a family to feed, especially at week-ends when everyone has more time to eat and enjoy. This is my pork roast before it hit the oven, so it is not yet cooked: meat, veg and a few herbs (grown in the garden of course). The bones are also there for a good sauce and they also have their advantages when cooked.

RDP Thursday: Tiptoe
If you have to balance on a lamp post, you really have to be careful where you put your feet.

I usually discard this type of photo, but a few remain in my archives. This is a view on our back yard mountains, the Jura, although more a photo of the clouds that are creeping over the mountains.

It is not only long but wide as well. There are all sorts of things that appear when the sun shines.

“Dracky, dinners ready. It’s your favourite.”
“Looks great Morticia, what group is it?”
“They said at the blood bank it was AB negative.”
“Great, makes a change from that O positive that you always get on special offer. Was it very expensive.”
“Not really, they seemed to have quite a lot of this sort. Apparently a whole family decided to give a collective donation so they were giving two for one.”
“Two for one?”
“Two arms full for the same price as one. And be careful with it when eating. Use a serviette. I don’t want to have to wash your white shirt, the stains do not wash out so well.”
Just to add, we had beetroot salad for tea this evening

Dogs seem to be blanket animals. Wherever there is a dog, there is a blanket. In this case it was in the office and the colleague brought the dog with her. Not only the dog but the dog’s dogs (toys) and of course the blanket: many years ago in a different life.

We had a mouse outside the house
He lived in the cupboard with his mate
He was quite well fed with seeds from the birds
to maintain his fast growth rate
One day I decided the time had come when we would say goodbye
He was thinking about creating a family in my shed
And the mouse population would get too high
RDP Thursday: Rustic Simplicity
Many restaurants in the outlying villages have a wonderful rustic simplicity. Her the old green tiled oven still exists.
And I found this cupboard at the entrance to the building where my doctor has his practice.

He wasn’t really shy, just plain scared
His master was shopping and he was not prepared
He barked and cried, was waiting one his own
I wanted to help, but didn’t have a bone
And then all was quiet, just a little whine
Not because of the photo, although that was really fine
His master arrived and then he stopped the cry
He was petted and fussed over, no reason to be shy
RDP Thursday: Jade

I was feeling a little jaded on my way home from the store this afternoon, but I was prepared. I had my woolly hat on, with compliments of Mr. Swiss. I should really have a look online to see if I can find something more fitting to my taste. I had my gloves, although they tend to get in the way when I take photos now and again. There was still some small remainders of snow on the way, but not too much and my trusty scooter ploughed its way through them.
