Virtual Coffee Tuesday - Needing some warmth and cheer...

... so I'm choosing a steaming (and dribbling!) hot chocolate today...


It's a cold, grey, drizzly, bleak day in the UK, so I need as much comfort as I can get *sigh*

So, I'm so glad you've dropped by!!

What can I get you? More of the same? Or would you prefer a refreshing lemon tea??

I hope you've had a good week...

Mine's been mixed... fun and not-so-fun...

The fun, first...


Well, my beloved football team did it on Saturday - they knocked their fiercest rivals (Manchester United) out of the FA Cup - and the whole match was live on a terrestrial channel!! Bliss :)

Then, on Sunday, I entered the week's IA Challenge (you can see my entry here), and can you believe it (I couldn't!), it was chosen as the winner!! Here it is in the Red Carpet Gallery...


Such excitement over the weekend somewhat made up for the disappointing news on Friday - my hand seems not to be responding to the saeboflex... the two physio appointments last week were very painful...

But, I've just had today's session, where another physio massaged and mobilized my hand, which makes it feel wonderfully relaxed She has a theory, which she hopes to try out on Friday, so we'll see... all may not be lost...

One more but of fun to end with... I've finally got some boards up on


There's a little button on the left side bar (just under the clock), but I'm warning you, it's seriously addictive! And do let me know if you have boards up, and I'll check them out :)

Now, tell me about your week? Fun, or not so...? Either way, it's lovely to share our stories....

Oh, sorry to hear your hand has been giving you so much pain still. I really hope that theory turns out and gives you some much needed relief! That hot chocolate does look super yummy in the meantime. Hope you feel better soon!

That cup and saucer is so cute!

Sorry to hear about your hand. Hope it feels better soon!

Pinterest is so addicting! :)

Let me think, now. Hot chocolate, or lemon tea? No contest really, is there. Especially not when the hot chocolate is served up in the most delicious cup and saucer in the world ...

Laura said...

ooh your hot chocolate looks better than the packaged stuff I have each night! I've had a long week...up late two nights in a row helping my daughter with a recording project for school. It came out very well, but wow...my body is not happy about it.

I'm so happy you will be part of the meditation circle!

Congratulations on the win, Clair! I've just started getting 'Pinterest-ed' too.
Thanks for the hot chocolate. Delicious and I love the cup.

Hope your hand is much easier very soon.

You're not kidding that Pinterest is addictive! I have some boards too, link on the left side of my blog. I'm just off to look at your's!
