Of Dogs and Cats and Florentines
We went into Stornoway this morning and after shopping we had coffee in the Woodlands Centre where I could not resist my usual coffee accompaniment there - a Florentine.
This splendid fishing boat - The Reaper - was in the harbour.
In the afternoon we took C-from-Next-Door around to Pat's for coffee. Briagha was as welcoming as ever.
I was also introduced to Misha - a new addition since I was last on the Island.

Oh, your accompaniment with your coffee looks delicious - but I know a Florentine as an Florentine omelet (with spinach, mushroom, and sauce Hollandaise). So what is your Florentine like?
ReplyDeleteGreat pictures. I especially like the one of the kitty peering around the bannister!
ReplyDeleteI've looked and looked at the photo, but I can't tell what exactly makes up a Florentine?? Do tell.
Misha looks adorable.. that inquisitive peer through the bannisters....
ReplyDeleteLove Granny
What a beautiful white dog and the kitty has that usual curious face as do all kitty's.
ReplyDeleteThat breakfast looks so yummy - and I see the coffee always looking so fancy...how do you do that?
Lovely blog. I spotted the Tunnock's Tea Cake lurking by the coffee! I know you would have enjoyed it Graham.
ReplyDelete- and to Simply Heather - the white dog is a Retriever and her name is Briagha (pronounced Breeya) which means Bonny or Beautiful in Gaelic. My cat is part oriental (with a voice to match) and her name is Misha. I am glad you liked the pictures - Bless you John - as always your pictures are appreciated. x
Fun! Looks good...I've had something like it many years back. I think the success of the recipe holding together well depends upon how much humidity is in the air, as with a lot of candy-making.
ReplyDeleteHmmmmm....I seem to recognize the candy wrapper across from yours from someone's detailed blog of not too long ago!
