Seamus, my lapdog
I have decided to ban Nutella from my cupboard – especially the really big jars that you can fit a really big spoon into. It’s all very well my Slimming World consultant saying that a teaspoon of nutella is only a few syns, but how about a heaped tablespoon – I mean dessert spoon obviously. I am not that much of a pig. Actually I am. So much for my plan to lose weight before Christmas – it is comfort food all the way around here.
And while we’re on the subject of comfort, I thought you might like to see a picture of Seamus making himself comfy on my lap. And yes he is heavy – 13 stone heavy. And the “tiny” dog curled up next to him is a Staffordshire bull terrier cross.
When people tell me they have a large dog I have this urge to say, “That’s not a large dog. This is a large dog.” Like Paul Hogan did with the knife on Crocodile Dundee!
Blimey – that is a large dog. (Unless you and your sofa are really, really small, of course.)
I buy Nutella for my husband, but unfortnately he doesn’t get to eat much of it. I swear it evaporates!
I am 5′ 10″ And I don’t weigh 13 stone, by the way in case anyone was wondering – although with some more nutella!
I think Seamus might be trying to tell you something – like, ‘get off my settee.’ As for Nutella; never buy it or I would be tempted to smear it over every plain biscuit in sight. I love chocolate and have a little bit every day so I don’t feel deprived. I tried cutting it out altogether, but it didn’t work. So little and often is my motto, and I still managed to get down to my target weight. A little bit of what you fancy…..and all that.
How cute is that picture?
Love the pic! That is one seriously large dog but he looks so comfy on your lap! Does he like Nutella, lol! x
He likes everything!
Della I think you should put the Nutella on a biscuit in the middle of the room and race Seamus for it.
That’d be good exercise anyway!
Are you sure that’s a dog and not a horse (the two are easily confused)?
What a gorgeous picture – you need a bigger lap.
I’ll look after your Nutella for you – I don’t like it. And what are you doing at Slimming World anyway, there’s nothing on you gal (well apart from Seamus!) xx
If I didn’t go to SW I would be 2 stone heavier – actually I was 2 stone heavier before I went – but thank you sweety xxx
Try a cat – they are more comfortable.
Seamus reminds me of my OH when he’s wearing his dark, hairy gown or should I say robe? He is so in favour at the moment, having urged me to pick up a basket when we were browsing Fortnum and Mason store on Saturday. Well, it is Christmas … but Nutella on digestive biscuits is definitely one of my weaknesses though I try not to buy trouble in a jar 🙂
seamus looks like he’s already got the Christmas spirit – Della I’ll e-mail a picture of tiddles my cat I found on a recent holiday !
Is that the lid off the nut Ella next to Seamus…wow…it is a big jar 😂👍
It certainly is 🙂
