Hmmm, I think I may have a chocolate problem! I bought a great wee book that shows you how to make your own chocolates. So far we have made fudge, nut clusters and some truffles not bad for someone who usually buys a new book and then takes months to make anything! Just had the last of the fudge, I had been eating it from the fridge, but just ate some at room temperature - much nicer. Must make more....
I took the girls out for a walk today, the sun was splitting the sky, maybe summer isn't quite done yet. KP managed to walk about 1/4 of a mile, not bad for a 15 month old. Her big sis R walked about a mile and only moaned about the last half - tired from nursery I think. We spent most of the walk along the lochside and then an old railway track looking for seeds. She decided to use the Willowherb as a magic wand, sending seeds all over the place and singing Bibbidy bobbity boo all the way.
We also found some Iris pods with brilliant big seeds that looked a bit like corn. R likes to open the pods and then scatter the seeds as she walks along. We spotted fish in the loch and also a leech wiggling along the bottom - euch. I once had the pleasure of a few of the wee suckers grabbing on when I was swimming in a loch.
So a busy day but nice to be out and about, lets hope the weekend is as nice ;-)
