A Cup Of Kwofee And Sum Bisquits With A Fellow Blogger…

My pitifully neglected blog needs a kick in the pants so I thought I would start by reblogging this from my dear friend Cameron which demonstrates the actual power of blogging. He and I really did live very near one another for many years, he went to the same school as my two elder daughters but we never met. It took the mother of my eldest daughter’s husband to be (now husband) … stay with me …. to introduce us when Cam was still waiting for a date for surgery. I now count him as a friend. A real and dear friend. And I am so thrilled to be able to stay in touch with him via our respective blogs. I feel his pain and his joy and I cook his ridiculously healthful and delicous meals.  I walk his walk and I talk his talk. He is part of my life. And without our teeny weeny corners of WordPress none of it would be possible. Actually my life would be consideraby poorer without my blog and I must thank so many of you for being my virtual friends and family.

Now, over to Cameron on Planet Magnet:

PS:  There were no biscuits.  Where are the biscuits, Cameron.  You promised me biscuits … you speak of them in your title.  I feel cheated, to be frank ….

  1. Osyth, I read this on Cameron’s blog – such a wonderful couple you two make! I think it is wonderful the friendships that are made here on WP! You are certainly at the top of my WP friends list. Happy day my dear! 🙂

  2. I love this photograph, Osyth!! Hope you are having a great week and wish I had more time to chat! At the library and flying through blogs! 🙂

    • I wish I was at the library …. X

      • It is so funny, Osyth. I tried to enlarge my phone’s page of your blog and I think I “un-followed” you so I pressed again and am following you. All with rather small finger and enlarged blog post! 😀
        I came by not to disrupt and create havoc but to share a small little sip of coffee or tea, say hello and wishing you warm days and pretty flowers. <3

      • How LOVELY to see you! I’m always happy to share coffee and sunshine with you or tea and rain for that matter …. Whatever the weatherman brings, whatever the day throws you are a joy and a tonic 🙂 x

  3. Glad to see you back! Hope everything is ok with you, hubby and of course, THE BEAN! I’ve been busy while you were away. Enjoy, I hope! 😉

    May 4, 2016
    • Of course I’ll enjoy and The Bean is hugely admiring of your secret superhero 😉

  4. We love biscuits and coffee and Gastradamus, We really do. Thanks for the comments today, We would really like your opinion on a few of our other stories if you have the chance, god bless

    May 4, 2016
    • Of course I will make comments where I think I gave any credence – incredible is marvelous in one way and quite deplorable if one has no foundation to open one’s mouth 😉

  5. Such a nice story. Nice to hear from you.

    May 5, 2016
    • I’ve been a little overwhelmed but hopefully my mojo is returning!

      May 5, 2016
      • I know the feeling. We are moving so we have a lot flying too.

        May 5, 2016
      • Oh goodness – where too? Bon courage – moving is SO stressful 😨😨😨😨

        May 5, 2016
      • We are downsizing to a smaller house, not too far away. Lots of details to take care.

        May 5, 2016
      • Just take care of you too …. Stress is highly corrosive

      • Meditation 20 minutes per day is critical for peace of mind.

  6. What a lucky chance! Isn’t it great to meet someone who you have only known up to then by their words and photographs.
    Blogging opens so many doors but it is nice to meet the owners of the houses behind those doors.
    I met Susie Kelly – author of so many books about her travels in France and a wonderful autobiography – when we were both off our beaten tracks in Spain….an unforgettable afternoon and evening which I doubt will ever be repeated given our geographical locations,but pure magic.

    May 5, 2016
    • I would love to meet Susie and as it happens I would love to meet you too! It was certainly fun meeting Cameron and I’m sure the café wondered what on earth was going on as we roared with laughter and drank them out of coffee!

      May 5, 2016
      • Yes, a meeting would be fun….would our paths cross in some godforsaken airport,do you think, both en route to opposite sides of the ocean? Probably be arrested by security staff for enjoying ourselves in a public place…

        And if ever you have the chance to meet Susie, do take it!

        May 5, 2016
      • Wholly plausible!

        May 5, 2016
  7. Love the serendipity of life!

    May 5, 2016
    • It’s one of the best things, Lindy 🙂

      May 5, 2016
  8. Love the background information, it’s a small world after all. I found his website via Lynz Real Cooking… One big WP family!

  9. So glad you are back.

    May 5, 2016
    • Thank you – that’s made me smile 🙂

      May 5, 2016
  10. How can you not love Cameron!!!! The best Scotsman I know!!! I was wishing I happen into the same coffee house as you two!!! …kat

    May 5, 2016
    • He’s a lovely chap – perhaps we can plan an assault on you in the desert or a big meet in France …. The possibilities are endless!

      May 5, 2016
      • France would be so much more fun….only sand that goes on forever….LOL

        May 5, 2016
      • France it is then ….. I like this plan 🙂 x

        May 5, 2016
      • me too…..

        May 5, 2016

  12. Thank you for sharing this beautiful friendship 🙂

    May 11, 2016
    • Whilst I am in the US I am hoping my path will cross with many of my blogging friends here. It would be lovely I think 🙂

      May 11, 2016
  13. This is wonderful! 😊💛

    May 13, 2016
  14. Surely you mean cookies? 🙂

    May 14, 2016
    • Haha Kerry! And hurrah ha to see you, you adored little darling …. I shall call them bikkies as a sort of compromise or cookuits – I like that!

      May 15, 2016
      • If you ask for biscuits down here, you will get a savory scone covered in a bechamel sauce (of sorts) with little pieces of sausage in it. Teddy loves this typical poor folks meal but not I… 🙂

        May 15, 2016
      • HB2 had told me about this and is with you. Others I have met here are in the Teddy camp. I will commit to trying it once ….

        May 16, 2016
      • Good luck! If this was a video you would see me grimacing at the thought. “)

        May 16, 2016
  15. Osyth, hope you are having an American picnic with hot dogs, hamburgers, sweet corn, watermelon and baked beans. Or BBQ chicken or ribs! I am here wishing you a Happy Memorial Day, dear. <3

    May 30, 2016
    • Robin that is SO kind! It’s the grill on the deck for me (and probably on my own since husband is suffereing from heatstroke having decided to be Mr Machismo in the yard on Saturday when it was 95 degrees here …. men!!!) Happy Memorial Day to you dearest lady 🙂 xx
