Hello everyone!

Oh we had a wonderful adventure today. We went to a place called The Japanese Garden at Cowden in Dollar. I know its early in the season so not many flowers on show, but it was absolutely spectacular. So peaceful and relaxing. The weather was perfect for it, sunny but with a very slight breeze so it wasn't too warm. Naturally we popped into the coffee shop as well, scone and coffee were had.

After that, we popped into Dollar to visit the lovely Wee Bookshop. Now its a lovely bookshop with a really nice cafe, including an outdoor seating area. To be honest though, not as many books as I would like in a bookshop. Its very pretty, but almost screams "Influencer/instagram" perfect place to visit if you pretend to like books. Maybe thats just me though. The coffee was damn good though.

Superb day out, I have so many more photos to share with you all, but that is a job for later. For now, its time for food and pjs.

@HeatherMJ It was a bit on the dry side tbh, but still tasty.

@JustFi I forgot to take a photo of the rhubarb & ginger creme brulee, which was pretty amazing. I wasn't going to have dessert, I don't usually, but it was amazing. There was also the beef and ginger skewers and the sour dough bread with almond and basil pesto.
Daughter no 1 is coming for roast lunch tomorrow. I may still be full
