Sammy

My nans dog is called Sammy, he has cancer and this week me and my nan and grandad are going to build a bear to put sammys fur into a bear! My nan already has one but i need one as well because i was brought up with Sammy and life without him is unimaginable!  Have a look at these photos, this is sammy the other day!

Mummy's epic Yorkshires!

My mum made these epic Yorkshire puddings! They are absolutely huge, as you can see from the photos! She used two eggs and my grandad uses four, if anything hers come out bigger, strange! If you want to make massive Yorkshires like these ones, do your average Yorkshire recipe and add two, or three or four eggs to make them rise! Thanks for reading!

Pickled Onions!

Every year my mum makes pickled onions and this year, my nan helped her peel them. They both wore glasses so that their eyes didn't water as much and it was hilarious to watch! The pickled onions are ready now but can't be eaten till December! I don't like pickled onions but my family say that they are always very nice, especially my mum's ones. My mum also usually makes blackberry jam, but hasn't got round to it this year :-( i love her blackberry jam!  Oh well, maybe next year!

New hairstyle!

You are probably looking at this photo and thinking 'What the hell has she got in her hair?!?!' and incase you are thinking that, it's a carrier bag handle... Now you will definitely be thinking that i am mad but there is a moral to the madness - I washed my hair at my nan's and she dried it for me. we are going out tonight so we plaited my hair up and tied one side up with my hair band, unfortunately I only had one. My nan searched the whole house for another hair band but couldn't find one so we decided to tie it up with the plastic bag handle that she had in her draw ( i thought that too, why does she have plastic bag handles in her draw?). We eventually tied it in my hair and decided that it was fine because we were going to let it out when we went out. Who knows? Maybe one day plastic bag handle hairbands will be fashionable?

Nanny's makeover!

Nanny doing her puzzle!

This is my nan. The other day we went to Norwich and nanny got her hair done, she also went to joules and bought this epic dress, she has her hair like that at the moment while she is in her dressing gown and doing a puzzle after a busy day of endless rain and sitting in a cafe drinking lemonade (me) and tea (nanny). I managed to get loads of sweets though: a chuppa chups lolly, a rainbow belt - strawberry flavoured and strawberry hubba bubba - epic!   I actually had a really good day!

 

Poor Jazz!

Jazz was bitten by a dog at the MHH (middle Harling Heath)and he had a massive gash down his side! You can see from the photos how bad it was. He's stapled up and dressed in a cast, which I signed, that is fluorescent pink and then a thin green layer on top. Poor jazz can barely walk! I think part of the reason for that is that Jazz has never really liked coats - we got one with his name on last year and he refused to walk with it on so obviously he got very cold, but jazz is acting a bit like that now - its weird and you just want to cuddle him - but that will hurt him so it gets very frustrating! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAH!!!
