I received lots of lovely gifts for my Birthday the other day but one in particular was most welcome: Grow-it-yourself Grass!

Our good friends at Gorgeous Guineas sent me a bag of magical seed things which Daddy planted for me. We watered them every day and now look! Lots of yummy, tall, extra fresh tasting grass – just for ME!

Here I am sampling it for my lunch today. Mummy, can you pass me a napkin, please.

Mmmmmmmmmm! I am getting hints of summer meadow, with tincture of morning dew, and a distinct aftertaste of seconds. Not a bad vintage!

It works equally well as a pudding! Jolly good exercise for the jaw too. Nom, Nom, Nom.

It really is very nice, perfect some would say.

You should try some! Err – not from this batch of course. You really wouldn’t like it as much as I do, so it would be wasted.

Mine came as a gift from Gorgeous Guineas, so you can jolly well visit Planet Guinea and grow your own. Now if you will excuse me, I have some serious munching to get on with. Bye – burp (oops pardon), bye for now.

As you know, I am a hay fever sufferer. It isn’t very nice when your dose gets all blocked up or you start sneezing everywhere. I am only allowed to go in the garden in the evening at present, when the pollen is a little less troublesome.

Here I am examining the flowers last night.

These pink and white flowers seem to be special hypo-allergenic varieties . . .

. . . but the same can not be said for these purply ones – pfhoof!

Hee-hee! I am feeling on top of the world – doing my hedgehog impression!

Hum . . . this smells ok, but it’s decidedly not for nibbling – I wonder why mummy and daddy bother to grow it!

. . . hang on though! It has yummy lettuce leaf snacks growing in it. Now that really is what I call a magical hedge!

Wow! These poppies are very tall! I will need my binoculars to see the flowers.

They look very pretty from down here though – almost as pretty as moi!

I’d better go indoors now, before I start sneezing. I think it is also time for a little snack!

The wedding preparations are well under way. Fairy has done an outstanding job as ‘event organizer’, planning everything with meticulous attention down to the last detail. We expect the big day to go without a hitch!

This morning Fairy went for a wander round the garden in search of suitable flowers.

Wow! Look at these ‘pinks’!

Hum . . . maybe they are a little bit too PINK!

These are nice though . . . very delicate . . .

. . . and they smell gorgeous! Phoof!!

Haha! These are almost as tall as me!

I know . . . I AM only little!

Oh yes, these are perfect. They will make nice hats! I think this one rather suits me.

We’ll take them all please!

Hello! I am over here! In amongst the daisies – they are white, just like me, and almost as pretty!

They smell lovely but I know they are not edible!

They are very comfy to sit on. I think I may just take a nap.

Sunny day. Guineas on the lawn. And this is what they get up to!

Hello, Marigold, are you coming with me? I am going exploring.

C’mon you two, keep up! Humph – this is a bit of a dead end!

Shhhh, I am going to sneak over here now . . .

. . . into third gear, squeeze the accelerator and  . . .  whoosh! I’ll show those two a clean pair of heels.

That was brilliant fun! Who is that hiding under the fleece over there? I am going to creep up . . .

. . . and JUMP on her!! Crumph!!!

Tee hee – that was fun! Now, where is my Tea????

Fairy enjoys very deep, satisfying sleeps! Her ears can be seen twitching, her toes jigging and she makes tiny little squeak noises – I always hope she is having a nice dream and not a nightmare.

Errr, where am I then? It feels as though I am on another planet. The ground is all hard and there isn’t any grass!

Hellooooo! Is there anyone out there?

I don’t like it . . .

. . . it feels all funny underfoot.

Come and get me NOW!

‘It is ok Fairy, it was all a bad dream! You are back home now, safe and sound.’

Oh! Thank goodness! Terra firma! Is there any grass, please? I am feeling rather peckish!
