Hello lovely girls,
How are you all? Have you had much to smile about this week? Of course you have! I have too.
My smiles are mostly cat-shaped...
But first let me show you a postcard that I received recently
No prizes for guessing it comes from Finland. It is a fun travel poster from the series 'Come To Finland'. It was sent to me by Marita who was looking forward to the christening of her 5th grandchild.
The stamp is gorgeous (as are most Finnish stamps):
"Fireworks bursting in the sky were chosen as the subject of the international no-value indicator stamp,” says illustrator Nina Kuuwho designed the stamps.
Those are not my only smiles for this week. As you can imagine my little kitty called Frankie is giving me plenty of smiles:
Here is my friend Kim with Frankie:
My friend Janet visited yesterday and brought a lovely little 'bed' and Frankie immediately loved it and has used it ever since:
That's enough of kitty. The other thing that made me smile this week was seeing this poster:
It means that next weekend we have a tapas and cocktail festival in our village. The idea is that you visit all of the participating bars over the weekend and rate their tapas and cocktails on a form that you're given. The bar with the most votes wins. It does mean that they will all try to outdo each other so it should be a good weekend to go out. I will let you know (with photos) how I get on.
That is all from me today. I will go and link up with Annie at A Stitch In Time and I will see you all there!
Have a lovely weekend,
Hugs,
Lisca
Here are some funnies for you to smile about:

Frankie sure looks adorable on her new bed. And that bed looks comfy. And those midwives sure brought home how dilated you have to be to give birth. That is scary but a good way to display it. Have a great weekend Lisca. hugs-Erika
So you have a little kitty now. Frankie is very sweet. Is he deaf? Most white cts are. I love his blue eyes. Our cats loved those beds too.
I hope you enjoy your tapas route. We didn't get onvery well with ours as there werre long waits for service everyhwere and Chris isn't that patient.
I like your funnies. I have always thought that about the airport luggage shops! Kate x
Frankie has stole my heart this week....what a pretty little cat and I'm sure good company for you.
Hugs,

Your Kitty is so sweet and very pretty, she is going to be great company for you. Love your postcards and funnies especially the Snoopy one, they always make me smile. Take care and have a good weekend. Hugs Angela xXx
oooooo love little Frankie in her new bed. Tapas! I don't think I've ever had the pleasure.

Hi again, sorry I think I confused you by not being clear enough. We went to the bank to sort the ISAS and then the jewelers to sell the rings. Yes we do live fairly close to Waddington where the Red Arrows are based though living in Lincoln you are always close to them as they fly around all the time when they are at home but several other planes too. Hope that clears things x
Dear Lisca,
you really gave us a lot of reasons to smile and laugh today. For example, I'm happy about the card and stamp from Finland, because I was in this country in 1985 and had an extraordinary vacation there. The sight of your sweet little kitty called Frankie brings me so much joy! What a cutie! 🥰😍 And a tapas and cocktail weekend sounds incredibly tempting. It's a shame you're so far away. I was really amused by your funnies. (Only the pumpkins were really terrifying...)
Because you wrote to me about root beer: I think you have to have grown up with it to like it. I think it tastes kind of medicinal. I'm sure my daughter wouldn't have liked it back then either if it hadn't been for the other children who loved it and drank it. But when I'm in the USA and the opportunity arises, I drink it every few years in memory of lovely family holidays 🥰😉
All the best, Traude
