Sherbet is sitting in a banana tree

Oh what fun!  I have had a nice walk today in the countryside.  Here I am sitting in a banana tree. I am afraid they are not ripe yet so I cannot eat one.
It is lovely to find free food from the trees,  just like at Clover Cottage.  In my garden at Clover Cottage though I cannot grow bananas  because the weather is not warm enough especially now as I have heard there is lots of snow in Wiggleway Lane at this moment. I am very glad to be here in the warm weather although I am being very careful not to sit in the sun too much as my ear tops will definately become pinker as will my face. It is best for me to stay sitting in the shade of a banana tree.
 I must tell you that I did find my very own  small sized baby banana tree, just the perfect size for me . You can see it in my photo  here on the left.
I am having so many adventures and  I can't wait to show you more of my photos.
 Oh what a fortunate Sherbet Sheep I am to be having such a wonderful adventurous time here in St Lucia.  I wish you could all be here with me
 Love from your friend,  Sherbetx

Sherbet receives a postcard from a tropical island

What a wonderful surprise I had this morning. The postman with the red van brought me a delightful postcard from one of my very dear friends who is on holiday in a tropical island far far far far far away.  How different it looks from my garden at Clover Cottage.
 I can see banana trees and pineapples and humming birds and hibiscus flowers. Pearl told me that I could make tea with hibiscus,  it would make a nice change from my peppermint tea.  I don't think I can make banana tea but I do know that I can make banana cake !  Yummy what a wonderful thought.  I do not have a banana tree here at Clover Cottage but I do have some bananas in my kitchen and I am going to start making a scrumptious, healthy, delicious cake right away !  I will put some nuts in it too as I do love crunchy bits in my cakes. I will invite Doodle, Mango and Pearl to share it with me. Oh what a lovely treat, scrummy, nutty, moist, slices of  banana cake.  Love Sherbetx
