It's fine for fish, it's fine for frogs........

It's raining cats, it's raining dogs, it's falling from the sky...............

It sure is and doesn't look set to stop at any time soon. I didn't blog last night as I sat here listening to the wind howl and the rain lash. At one point I thought the windows were going to crash in! They were fine but one fence panel was down this morning.

I started the day in the rain too. The traffic was dreadful so I was late and my first appointment was early. Result = no time for breakfast. Bad! Truth is my appointment lasted until after 12.00 so I settled yet again for a coffee and a banana! Lunch was a slight improvement but I ate it whilst I was working. That's never a good idea as it doesn't feel like I have eaten if I don't stop and concentrate on the meal. Anyway, I did eat Laughing Cow Light (1/2 HEa) with crispbreads (HEb), pickles and tomatoes. I followed that with kiwi, pineapple and mango.

Sure enough it was raining at the end of the day so I drove home with it crashing down. It is so depressing and so easy to comfort eat! I would have given almost anything to be making stew with fluffy dumplings followed by something stodgy with custard. Dream on eh? I ended up with smoked haddock, cabbage and carrots. Not even stodgy mashed potato to go with it!

So there we are - back where I started this blog. Listening to the wind and rain I curled up with the cats and treated myself to a Curly Wurly! The fish and the frogs are thriving out there!
