Mary and Adrian are both working this week, and have booked the kids in to summer camp for part of the week so we are left to our own devices. So of course we decided to go shopping this morning. We headed to the Citadel outlets, about 40 minutes from Mary's house. We did a pretty good job and found some great clothes for a lot less than we would pay at home. We also bought another bag to put them in for our flight home!

On our way back to Mary's place we decided to go past the supermarket to buy stuff to make dinner. We made a veggie lasagne with plenty of zucchini and mushrooms and cheese. It was very well received with Mary now not wanting us to leave, and even Jude saying it was yummy despite the amount of vegetables in it. We will have to try and top it tomorrow!

Our other challenge for the week will be to gain the trust of the family cat, Florence. She is very cute but is suspicious of these strange people who are hanging around and sleeping in Miranda's room. Damien is thinking to trying to buy her love with food!
