Happy Birthday Stephen



How does a birthday boy celebrate his big day in Clyde?
Well first he has to survive a very cold frosty morning so there is no incentive to get up very early. As we are tucked under the hill here in Clyde at this time of the year it is 10:30am before any sunshine warms us up.


So after a leisurely start to the day it was time to open the presents:
warm brushed cotton PJs and a cover for the boat.




Later in the day there was time for 'play'. We have a washing machine that has passed its used by date and I knew that he always had his eye on it.  He has seen lots of ideas on how to recycle various such things ( I think a wind turbine is on the plans) so today was the day when he had time for that first look. We will have to watch this space.





Once the sun was down (4:15pm) it was time to retreat back inside to enjoy a birthday drink, and a birthday tea, that included a wee apple pie. This was followed by a piece of Fudgy brownie, complete with a candle to finish a lovely relaxing day.




The following link takes you to the recipe for this delicious recipe that uses 225gm of 72% dark chocolate.
