I practised my royal wave back to the peasants and traipsed down the hill.

You are so funny Sir Cinderfella. A royal actually doing the lowly task of grocery shopping and cooking!
But seriously now, I love cooking but have never made Chilli beans, not a big thing here. Next time please take some pics and share your secret recipe, although beans and IBS are a no-no, but I do love them.
Happy Birthday to Mrs. T, a Leo like my Arthur, his birthday is on the 11th. I'll be down the coast at our favourite little resort, hoping the brother and friend catch fish for the pan.
Talking about the weather, we only felt winter this weekend, we thought it would never arrive.
Seems like it can't make up its mind!
Enjoy the birthday celebration Mrs. T, and I hope you're making the birthday cake, Sir Cinderfella 🎂
