I Like Fire |

Last night we made fire:
I would love to say it was all me, but unfortunately I can't. Ray started it and got it going, while Jemma played the Wafter role (which meant she wafted the flames/embers with a stick) and I played the Safety Officer role (which meant I kept Pugs away, gave them hugs when they got cold, shouted "flames are on the ground!" and "waft faster!" at appropriate times). The fire, of course, was very, very pretty so I took lots of pictures:
Then Ray started twirling around a stick of fire so I could get these beautiful shots:
Of course we were supervised the whole time by Martha, who stood at the top of the drive and observed from afar, making sure we weren't setting the garden alight. And two of the Pugs helped out, as well, (Falls and Sweepie) because they're both usually outside when their granddad makes the fires.
It was a really fun time, except we did all come in reeking of smoke.
The night then had to end badly. Ray and I had a huge fight and I ended up crying on the kitchen floor while he skulked off home. Ahh, isn't love grand.
(Last night, I also picked and ate my homegrown peas, and they were gorgeous. I need to grow fields full of them.)
