Pizzas at the Empire Cinema

Whisky and I were having a delightful morning cuddle on the couch when we were amazed by an extremely heavy downpour of rain. I mean really heavy; it was drumming on the roof of the house! James and I went to the Spruce Goose for breakfast and got five pink peonies for Kerry at a wee flower shop in Lyall Bay. By the time our newly engaged couple Jamie and Kerry arrived back at lunchtime the sun had come out and we were able to eat lunch in the garden. What a change in the weather! James and I walked to Island Bay later and it was like a summer’s day; I sat on the beach to read my book and James went for a walk along the coast. I was mesmerised by the beauty of the waves. 
Unfortunately James has caught my cold and was feeling a bit rough so he wasn’t hungry for dinner and decided to have an evening at the Airbnb. Jamie was working so that left Kerry and me to have a girls’ dinner together. It was extremely nice to spend some girl time with my son’s fiancée! We had pizzas at the Empire Cinema Café and they were delicious, and we had a lovely chat about the engagement and future wedding plans. At my request Kerry had brought the leftover sandwich from lunch time and I took it back to the ailing James with a couple of slices of my pizza. He was hungrier than he had thought so they were a welcome supper for him!
