Tried a new recipe today for a coconut cream dessert

Went to the hairdresser, very happy having had the last one cancelled due to lockdown.
Had a ‘lockdown’ cut just in case!
Oooh looks lovely, I love a bit of coconut!
Glad you got your haircut too!
I’m so glad I have an afro jungle on top of my head and not hair, so much easier with these restrictions! :))
 
Had a renal scan today, I'm supposed to have an annual one but it's 3 years since the last. No sludge, no grit, and best of all no stones. The little stone that was there 3 years ago has gone. I have kidney disease and frequent stones have caused damage which is thought stops any stones passing on their own. I feel so relieved not to be facing another operation, todays date has been hanging over me a bit so all I want to say is :yahoo::yahoo::yahoo:
 
Today I drove to my dad's, awful drive due to the weather, to deliver his Christmas cake, we only stayed 20 mins but was nice to see them, had to be inside because of the rain, otherwise we might have stayed longer, it has been almost a year since we last saw them due to illnesses and lockdown etc. They don't do video calls, but at least they have seen the grandchildren even if we couldn't hug them.
 
Saw my parents from the other end of the garden when I went to pick up some food. And my sister and niece/nephews. Also saw four workmates when I went shopping. Was really nice to see two - one I was really close to as we worked together and remained friends. Another an older gentleman who is absolutely lovely. One of them lives on my road. The other lovely as well, though he wasn’t there as long by the time I left.
 
10kg of hay arrived today.
I’m so glad it arrived before Christmas
The hallway now resembles an obstacle course with an X large bag of wood shavings and 2 boxes of hay in it!
Iam happy to have such a patient and tolerant husband
I know that feeling at the moment! Thankfully Daisy the cat doesn’t mind too much either! :))
Glad the piggies are well stocked for Christmas!:)
 
Oh I ordered a bag of pillow wad hay on Amazon. Steep for the amount but BOY does it smell lush! Yes, I smelt it 3-4 times. If I were a piggy! I gave them some and boys dived straight in. Chanel was on the other side but she’s likely now joined Coco in munching on it.
 
Nice walk in the park feeding oats to the ducks and geese and swans, then we had our own nice veggie xmas dinner at home today before joining the extended family bubble for the afternoon tomorrow!
Roast butternut squash and roast garlic and sprouts :) then I serve it filled with my balsamic and fig chutney...

We went out for a walk after lunch and got home just as the rain started.
It was lovely out but bitingly cold.

I'm happy for lots of little reasons today, Christmas expectations from family have been achieved as best we could, Sainsburys delivered a full set of fresh salad items with no cancellations or substitutions, piggies are cleaned out, laundry is done, piggies and piggydaddy have been fed, we are all safe and warm and financially secure, I have a hot water bottle waiting in bed and a book to read... little things mean a lot sometimes!
