My sister-in-law Jennifer arrived bright and early this morning, for our girly day out. First, we headed over to Kelso to my friend Lizzi's (you've met her at Kist meetings!). Lizzi recently qualified as a therapeutic masseuse (Lizzi - I hope I got that right!). While Jennifer was having her massage, I had a potter round the shops in Kelso, including a look in the charity shops, where I bought not one, but two things!
We have fish for dinner on Wednesdays (the fishman comes in his van on Wednesday mornings!) but we have never had proper fish knives and forks - until I found this set today. As you can see, they have never been used, still wrapped up in tissue paper.
I also succumbed to this lovely set of dessert forks and spoons - if you stand on your head you can see my reflection in the big spoon!
After I had my massage, we headed off to Under the Sun (where we go for knit'n'natter) where we continued with the healthy theme of the day and had delicious salads. Then we may have had to indulge in a bit of shopping.......
Jennifer bought these wonderful red shoes
while I fell in love with this sweater
We then called in at Borderland Fabrics - after looking at all the wonderful fabric, the healthy lifestyle might have suffered a hiccup and something very sweet and chocolatey was consumed with a cuppa (but we did share it!). We are now sitting sipping a glass of wine, while Malcolm cooks dinner -a perfect end to a great day out!
