Waffling on - 12/10/26

It was a fairly quiet weekend here.

I did my usual session at the Foodbank on Saturday morning.  Despite the fantastic amount of donations we had from the Woodford Wells Harvest service last weekend there was still a fair amount of food sent in on Saturday.  Sally one of the other volunteers usually joins me so we're usually done in a couple of hours.  

I took advantage of the sunny weather and walked home via the lake.  It is definitely autumn here now.

Saturday evening I watched Strictly (Strictly Come Dancing) which is a favourite of mine.  Some stars are better than others but it is entertaining.

Sunday was relaxing although I did fit in another walk around the lake.  Then we went to our daughter's for dinner.  Our DIL had done a nice slow cooked beef dish but she wasn't happy with her sticky toffee pudding.  Fortunately we'd taken some of the banana bread I made on Friday which went well with the toffee sauce so all was not lost.

I dropped Hubby off at an open mic on the way home then watched the Strictly results show before getting hooked into a new series here "Winter".  

It follows forensic pathologist Dr. Ethan Winter and DI Lauren Bell as they solve complex murder cases in Bristol, blending weekly mysteries with an overarching personal storyline.  

I watched the first two episodes and could easily have watched more but my bed was calling me.

Today I have given in and put the heating on.

  1. I'm watching Dancing With The Stars here. I think it is like your Strictly... I enjoy it! Our weather was cooler today when we went out for our morning walk, but not cool enough to put the heat on. We are still in shorts!! Have a happy week, Wendy! xo

  3. I'm going to have to look and see if we get that series here. Sounds like one I'd enjoy. I just finished Shetland and really liked that one. I think they're filming another season but I'm sure it will be a while before we see it here. We are still pretty warm during the day but enjoying cooler mornings and evenings now which I love. Glad your. foodbank is well stocked.
