Good morning girls,
Immust confess, I had completely forgotten to write my blog. I had it in my diary for tomorrow. How stupid. Does anyone else (of a certain age) get their days mixed up? I find it worrying. But let's get on with it.
I have a postcard to show you that I received well after Easter:
It comes to me from Lithuania, which is one of the Baltic states. I can never tell them apart (Estonia, Latvia and Lithuania). But this is Lithuania:
The stamp reflected the subject matter of the card, more food:
The food shown on the stamp are cepelinai, or potato dumplings:
My week has been rather uneventful, other than that we had one day of torrential rains. So much so that my neighbor's courtyard flooded:
I have baked cakes. This is an apple cake as I had four 'old' apples that needed using up. they made a lovely cake:
I am still enjoying the company of my cat Ronnie (officialy Roneo):
He is fascinated by my phone:
To finish let me show you a poem by Rudyard Kipling that someone sent me:
Happy T-Day all!
Lisca

Working from home is a problem, too. "Studied" the weekend and really was lost what day it is!
Yummy stamp!
Oh, no flooding (though that is the reason Ingo moved to Braunschweig and our weekend-relationship ended after darn 13 years - never again).
Ronnie is so cute! Wise poem.
Happy T-Day.
That's such a pretty Easter postcard, I was mesmerised by all the things on the table - so beautiful ❤️. The apple cake looks so yummy and I loved seeing Ronnie, he's a cutie 😊. Wishing you a very Happy T Day! Hugs, Jo x
I worked with a woman from Lithuania once. Or at least her family came from there. She was sure that Communism would fall and that they would be free again, and she was right! Now it’s a modern democratic European country.So I enjoyed the postcard and info you wrote about.
Wow that is a lot of rain. We had cold and wet weather too at my house. Not spring weather at all. And I love looking at photos of Ronnie. Plus your apple cake looks tasty. I hope this week is nice for you. And happy T day. hugs-Erika
Very handsome boy Mr Ronnie <3 your apple cake looks delicious, I'm about to do something similar with some ripe bananas - use them up! Love the postcard, those pink cups are very pretty. We've had non-stop rain since Friday but nothing like yours! Happy T Day!
Four days in a row it's rained here. We need it, but not in torrents. What a mess your neighbor had.
Love seeing your apple cake. It made me hungry. And Ronnie is a real cutie and not a bit camera shy. Lucky you.
Your postcard is perfect for T this week, Lisca. I love the bunny, the teapot, the pink cups, and the pink tinted glass. It's wonderful and a great way to share T this Tuesday.
I think when you are retired or don't go to work every day, it's very easy to lose track of what day of the week is it. You're not alone. All that rain! I hope your friend's house didn't flood. Oh, I wish I didn't see the apple cake because I want a slice or two. Isn't Ronnie adorable and he has such beautiful eyes. Happy T Day
Yes, being retired it is easy to get the days confused. You've done a beautiful job here. Thank you for sharing with us. Aloha!
Your cake looks so delicious!
Yes, things seem to slip my mind these days as well.
Your kitty has the most amazing eye colour. What a dreamboat. :)
Always loved that particular poem.
