Summer’s almost here!

Today was a good day. We visited a gorgeous baby boy and had a cuddle. We put our Christmas tree up (and the sloth’s tree upstairs, stay tuned). We made an amazing Summer salad (with haloumi, peaches, prosciutto and more) for dinner, and had gingerbread icecream for dessert. It’s beginning to feel a lot like Summer and Christmas. Except that my tree theme this year is “frosty”. OH! And I have a colour-changing snowflake tree-topper. It’s the best. sloth

Happy Birthday to my Best Friend

Today is the boy’s birthday! We had friends over last night, have spent all day together today and will see family tonight. He is the cherry on top of my sloth-filled life and I love him so very very much, not least for putting up with this all-consuming obsession of mine (and, generally, encouraging it…).

To get into the party mood, here’s some pics of Buttercup the Sloth on her birthday, from the Sloth Sanctuary in Costa Rica. buttercupbirthday buttercupbirthday2
