Soops kitchen, a place of reflection, refuge and at times revelry.

It feels odd to have a kitchen without our founder.

We shall carry on as she would have wished.

Supporting each other and sharing our ups and downs 😘🥂🫖☕️🍰

Grandmabatty have a break and come back when you are ready.
I am posting much less currently, I am reasonably ok but don’t want to talk about my situation.
I am dealing with it and love to read how you are all are and how your lives are going.
I rejoice with your happy news and sympathise with those who need it
Take care everyone.

A cloudier day here but very humid. The house holds the heat no matter how many windows are open (on the cool side of the house) and it’s 27 degrees upstairs at the moment!

A fairly busy day, changed the bedclothes, did some ironing and resumed attacking the weeds in the front garden. One of my neighbours did ‘no mow May’ and all the weeds from her lawn have spread seeds onto several front gardens.

Best wishes to those in the quiet corner.
Have a pleasant evening everyone.

Ow Grandmabatty take a break by all means but remember your friends are here waiting and hoping you will return when it’s the right time for you. 💗

TillyTrotter that cat lounging on the window sill looks delightful. Are you sure he/she wouldn't like a change of scenery? I miss Tara my previous cat, it has been 3 years.

Grandmabatty I am so sorry to hear you are having a rest. Please don't forget to come back when the time is right.

The only time I am pleased I live in a cold house is now, in the middle of a heatwave. I don't need a fan on, it is cool enough.

Oh *Grandmabatty we will sorely miss you. Haste ye back lovely lady - bc it won’t be the same without you!

L’il Miss went home with a Greggs lunch but sadly Yorkshire Miss couldn’t make it over this afternoon after all. Soon, I hope.

I’m tired tonight.
Last night was such fun having L’il Miss ti sleep here but it was one of those random nights when I just could not sleep! Aargh! L’il Miss was flat out by 9:30pm
But I definitely saw 2am! Why? 🤷‍♀️

Anyway I’m so tired I feel like space cadet so I’m off to sleep now. I was going to watch the first ever episode of Clarkson’s Farm this evening now I’ve signed up for my 28 day free trial, but tomorrow is a whole new day untouched and I need some sleep!
