project 365: week 27



179. Despite Millie never, ever, ever being given food from our plates, this is still the situation I am faced with every meal time. Within minutes of sitting at the kitchen table she nudges her way under my arm and uses her ridiculously long tongue to try and scavenge some food. This action shot was too funny to not share.




180. A view of London on my trip down there last week. Not many more trips to go, as my secondment finishes soon, it will be nice to not have the long journeys but there will be things I will miss about my trips too.




181. Porridge for breakfast before a great day in work. 




182. Beautiful roses in bloom. Lots of them have opened up now, so I may even gather a few together for indoors, the scent is so powerful.




183. After the storm, the garden was full of scattered petals, as though nature had been throwing confetti. These bedraggled peonies still looked beautiful somehow.




184. On a late night walk with Millie, I love that the sun is still shining at 10pm. Spotted this beautifully coloured feather, thanks to Millie sniffing it out, jewel-like amongst the grass.




185. As we put our tent up in the garden, as a test run for the holiday, I couldn't resist taking a snap of the rose bush in full bloom.

    1. clever is not the word I use when I'm desperately trying to eat my dinner before she launches at me!! I love visiting for leisure, but sometimes with work I feel guilty that I don't make more of it in the evenings! x

  4. Beautiful roses and I love the capture of the half blown peony. Millie's hopeful face and tongue did put a big smile on my face too.

  6. love the action shot of your pup. Our dog is too tiny to get anything from the table. However he begs from my husband whenever he is sitting on the couch because my husband taught him that. I do not feed him so he skips me :)

    1. thank you for visiting Karen. I wish I could get Millie to skip me! She obviously thinks I'm a soft touch as she never jumps up at The Husband. Maybe I just drop more crumbs!

  8. Meg does the same, she sits in patient hopefulness at the table every time we eat. She's just hard wired to want food I think! X

    1. Millie definitely is, we often wonder if she would ever stop eating, given the chance!
