Along the river.

Hello Friends!

Today, our dog was  better so we decided to go out for a walk along the river Seine ( Caudebec en Caux) I know some of you did a cruise on the river Seine and this is a town where cruise boats stops. One was there while the tourists went to visit the Abbeys by bus.

We also did some nice shopping!

The little river goes to the Seine

This is where it goes in the big Seine.

I took pictures of the outside of the church the inside was closed unfortunately they prepared a concert for tomorrow.

The door of a Middle aged house.

Only a few houses still exists after the many bombing during the second WWar.

An old ferry now they’re bigger

The cruise boat from Switzerland 

( for Linda and Lorrie!)

 Tomorrow depends on dog’s health but the weather will be fine we may go to the seaside avoiding the  violence in the towns it’s quite complicated these days…

I wish you a nice evening or day 🥰 

This and that…

 Hello friends 

We had a hard night again  in fact every night we have to wake up our dog being more and more ill!

It’s sunny outside and I stay home to look after Bandit.

Our son  is in Singapore for his work at the moment. He has sent me some pictures this morning. I can’t upload the videos unfortunately.

He had a tooth infection and had to find a dentist in urgency who gave him antibiotics.

There is a big thunderstorm and very heavy rain today in the country.

I don’t know how Bandit ‘s health  is

going to be during these days? We will see he should be 13 in December but had a cancer surgery in Spring.

His Hotel

A morning out.

Hello Friends 

This morning I had an appointment to do my passport and identity card. Mum was not there and Bandit( my dog) was very anxious and sad to be alone. So after my quick lunch I had to sit with my Jack Russell on my lap trying to knit 🧶!

I have left home earlier and went to the country town to get fish, vegetables and fruits before going to the town hall. I was on my way when a car broke down and blocked the street and waited until the tow truck arrived! I had to phone the town hall to let them know I might be late. After 20 minutes I could go and had to hurry but was on time I should get my passport and identity card soon. Then I found some petrol and was ok with a police speeding control!

Watching the news and relax ☺️ 

Not easy to knit with Bandit on my lap but he even sleeps in my back under the bed cover since his friend Basile died. He has a strong attachment to me a bit too much. 😂 

I went walking and met some friends.the weather is colder and grey  a real Autumnal weather 🌦️!
 

Some things new.

Hello Friends 

Yesterday look what I found! This beautiful cup

I love it!

And especially for Mari!

Look what I found a barn puzzle! In a beautiful barn box

Today we ate a pie I have baked with  diced bacon  béchamel sauce cheese and Swiss  chard.(not sure of the translation?)

I often bake this kind of dish when there are some in the shops in Autumn.🍂 

Have you a special dish you like in Autumn?

All Saints Day.

Hello friends.

All Saints’ Day is tomorrow and our deceased day is on Monday 2 nd of November, but we went to church as the today’s monks and religious sisters church service for our deceased was this afternoon.

You can hear the bells calling for mass we all gather in church. ( Catholics)

This is what the monks are making and painting 

These are on sale

Jam made by the sisters

Their shop

This was a church destroyed during the revolution 

The little shop we like to go. Mr L bought me a scarf and a brooch and I bought her home made apple and cinnamon jam

It was a beautiful Autumn day and we prayed for our ancestors tomorrow we will pray “All Saints Day”  

Have a good evening or day 🥰
