One of the nicest things about life is the waywe must regularly stop whatever it is we are doing
and devote our attention to eating.

Lady R and I thank you sincerely for your good wishes and prayers. She is now home resting comfortably following two difficult and painful operations. I have persuaded her to start yoga and to replace her regular diet with organic lean protein, fruits and vegetables to strengthen her immune system whilst getting her mind and body ready for her upcoming chemotherapy. Please continue to pray for her.
My darlings be good to yourselves and rememberthe greatest wealth is health.

Dear Duchess!!!
I was just thinking about you and Lady R and how you are doing...when your post appeared...Isn't it strange how one beginss to think about people without having met them...
I am glad to hear that the surgery part for Lady R is over and that she is at home! And of course I shall continue to wish her and you all the very, very best for the difficult times ahead!!! You must be such a support for her!!!!!
Dear Duhcess, IF your time allows it and maybe to take your mind off for a few seconds, pop in for a quick visit - I have started a giveaway yesterday and it might just be just 'your cup of tea' ...
The very best wishes and Love from
Nicolax

I am keeping your dear friend in my prayers, Duchess.
First time visitor to your blog. I must say your blog is the prettiest blog I have ever seen. I love afternoon tea and anything tea related. You blog offers these and much much more. I love you set-up, your writing and your beautiful photos. I can see that you are much loved and all for good reason. I will pray for your friend and wish you two the best.
My darling- I really often think of you and Lady R :-)
It´s so good for her, to have a wonderful friend like you!
I hope, she gets more and more energy back and a lucky heart! I wish you the same :-)
I only can eat such things and I could start to eat all wonderful things in your pictures immediately :-)) I have many allergies and I can tell you- this way of food is wonderful! I am sure, Lady R will be refreshed with all those wonderful things to eat...
I don´t stop praying- for you both!
God bless you- many hugs and kisses - Ines
I'm glad to hear the surgeries are over and it sounds like Lady R has the perfect friend being positive and encouraging healthy pursuits.
Thinking of you both,
Victoria xx

I am so glad your friend is doing well! Many blessings to you both. You are such a good friend to take care of her like that. It sounds like you have a great regimen for your friend. A diet like that should make anyone healthier! Prayers and hugs to you!
Ow, great post in so many ways!
Your pictures are beautiful, darling Duchess. xxx
Bonjour Duchess,
So happy to hear Lady R is back home and doing well. She is lucky to have such a loving friend with excellent advice to give. I will continue to pray for her speedy recovery! Hope you are doing well Duchess? Don't forget about yourself my friend.
Take care,
Mimi
That's one of my favourite quotes of all time!
I'm sending you hugs and praying you and your friend have strength to get through this difficult time.

A sweet hello from Frog Hollow Farm! What wonderful news about your friend! I'm sure that your friendship and positive thinking is doing it's share in her recovery. Remember to take care of yourself - your reserve of positive thinking and genuine goodness must always be renewed and nurtured. Sending waves and waves of love and support! Ciao, bella!
Dear Duchess, I did not know that you had posted but came to tell you that I have been thinking of you very often in the last few days. I, of course, have, also, been praying! Then, I've come and seen a sweet message from you. Fruit and veggies are very sweet - you make them look, dare I say it, even more beautiful than your cakes. Also, you should know that, your words to us (especially at the moment) are carrying weight and the ability to echo on. Lead on, Dearest! (We seem to be strongest when we are the weakest and shine brightly when we are cracked and others can see our inner light....)
Love, Katy xxo
So Happy to see you on my sidebar today!
Great advice for all of us! And, yes, I am Praying!
You are such an incedible friend to Lady R.
BLESSINS!!!

Oh Duchess, ever so lovely to see you again! I was just thinking of you yesterday. Wonderful new and excellent advice you have given your beloved friend. Prayers spiraling up to heaven, never ceasing.

I am so happy to hear that your friend got through the surgeries. I'll pray that she has an easy time of it during chemo. My Mother in law was hardly sick at all! One of the lucky ones....
I will keep her in my prayers.

...so very true. We must remember this!@
That is so good to hear and that you are giving her such wonderful advice too.
She is so lucky to have a friend like you.
xoxo DJ
I will pray for your friend Duchess, she is one lucky girl to have you as a friend.
Darling Duchess, what a friend you are ! We are all praying for you. Could I also suggest a Chiropractor ? Mine specialises in nutrition and says that a healthy gut is key to general good health. If you can find one near to you I think it really might help. Anything to make your friend more comfortable might be good at this time. She is lucky to have you !
Duchess
its so good to hear from you sweetie,im soo glady Lady R is doing well,i have been praying for you and her,stop by soon and always know im here for you ,gentle hugs Cilla
I'm glad to hear that your friend is at home. It's great that you are guiding her on the path to regaining her health.
I liked the quote and your lovely photos.
Love and prayers,
Maureen
Well-wishing and faerydust I send to let your spirits fly! Blessings dears.
Yes, this is so true! Wishing you all a very happy weekend :-) Sorry, I have missed some of your earlier posts (Patsy has a brand new sister) and we have been kept very busy with her naughty antics!!! I've just put some pics on the blog!
Cheers, Karen
Sending up a prayer for Lady R! And I love the new photos of the fresh produce .. different from your usual photos :)
"The greatest wealth is health"...so true.
I am deeply sorry about your friend Duchess, I could tell by the last post I read of yours that you were saddened. Because I stepped away for almost a month from blogging I missed your news. I wish your be-loved friend a proper recovery. If she has you to care for her then she will be in perfect, caring hands. I adore what you wrote about good health is wealth. Nothing could be more true.
Love and hugs to you both xoxo deb
Gorgeous pictures of veggies! Love it.
HELLO MY DUCHESS,
JUST WANTED TO STOP BY AND WISH YOUR DAD A HAPPY FATHER'S DAY.
HAVE A NICE DAY.
