For a start the humans in the house, or at least one of them, knows how the oven works. I want to bake a birthday cake for Alfie. It\u2019s his birthday next Sunday and other than Mum he\u2019s my best friend in the whole world. I was hoping to do it on Saturday so it was still nice and fresh, but I\u2019m going out for the day to see my grandparents so I\u2019m going to have to try to do it when we get back. I suppose he doesn\u2019t need to eat it until the afternoon, so there will still be time. I want to include some of his favourite foods in it like carrot and yoghurt and steak. I just need to find a recipe that looks easy to make and then persuade Mum to help me.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\"><figure class=\"alignleft\"><a href=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/IMG_3903.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"225\" height=\"300\" src=\"http:\/\/alfiedog.me.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/IMG_3903-225x300.jpg\" alt=\"img_3903\" class=\"wp-image-12319\" srcset=\"https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/IMG_3903-225x300.jpg 225w, https:\/\/alfiesdiary.uk\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/IMG_3903.jpg 338w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 225px) 100vw, 225px\" \/><\/a><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Aristotle has been getting in on the selfie craze and after Alfie\u2019s one that he posted he asked if I could include the one he took of himself. He really is rather handsome! Mum says I\u2019ve got the most gorgeous eye lashes. She\u2019s never really noticed them on the others before but apparently mine are very pretty.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Dad\u2019s been doing a lot of practising for the pantomime. The productions start next week. We won\u2019t get to see him in his costumes but he will come home wearing his make up between the afternoon performance and the evening one on the Saturday. I\u2019m quite excited, although Alfie said he didn\u2019t really like it when Dad was made up as the baddy in previous years. Thankfully he still smells the same so we\u2019ll know it\u2019s him.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>We didn\u2019t do much walking at the weekend as Mum wasn\u2019t feeling too well and the weather was bad. I\u2019m hoping she\u2019s going to make up for it today with a nice long walk. I\u2019m happy to go in any weather.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Have a good week<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Love<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Wilma<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You can find short stories to read at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.alfiedog.com\">www.alfiedog.com<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Alfie\u2019s Diary \u2013 the Book as well as our other books are available <a href=\"http:\/\/www.amazon.co.uk\/s\/ref=nb_sb_noss?url=search-alias%3Daps&amp;field-keywords=rosemary%20j%20kind\">HERE<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>It\u2019s so much easier for humans to do things.
