..spud-u-like...

...valentines day came early for my husband tonight....
....with this spud of love...
..quite symbolic as we met 28 years ago 
outside 'spud-u-like' in edinburgh..!
..i had some free time this morning...
..and found myself in the 
it was such a treat to snuffle around
with no time pressures...
..even if it was FREEZING!!!
..more hangers miss squirrel????
(it's getting to be quite an obsession you know!
..i have plans for these......)
...i have been resisting these little red shoes for some time now...
..but today i just wasn't strong enough..
..oh and a friend for my policeman..
..a 'little chef'..
(...which takes us rightback to where i started 
with 'spud-u-like'!)
