... start to the day.
I've just opened one of the kitchen cupboards, releasing an impatient jar (full) of stem ginger in syrup, which hit the floor and smashed to smithereens, leaving tiny fragments of glass all over the place and sticky syrup seeping across the floor tiles and embedding itself into the grout.
Oh yuk!
I had no idea that there was so much syrup in a jar of ginger, nor did I fully appreciate it's stickiness. It's taken half an hour of mopping, wiping, hoovering and mopping again to finally get rid of it - and even now I keep going around with a brush and dustpan, just in case I've missed any glass that could find it's way into the girls' paws.
Not a good start at all.
LILY & ROSE
Here are some photos of Lily & Rose. There are a few from the first time we saw them when they were just 4 weeks old. They would fit on your hand at this age and didn't look much like westies!

I can empathise with that on a far smaller scale though no less irritating and mysterious. I'm talking toast and marmalade here. No matter how careful I am...no matter how skilfully the butter and marmalade is spread with just enough toasted crust room to hold the toast comfortably.... there's always a trace of the seemingly invisible sticky stuff that finds its way between my fingers up near the knuckles. The same rule does not seem to apply to any other conserve or anything else sticky for that matter. And it seems to creep up the blade of the knife too and onto the handle. Nothing else does this except marmalade....er in my....er...experience. Now where are those Smith and Wessons...oh damn it. Forgot!
ReplyDeleteYou are SO right!
ReplyDeleteHow does it happen?
I've even tried applying tiny, delicate smears taken from a spoonful at the side of my plate to bite size pieces of toast - and it STILL happens!
