Oh what a busy Sherbet sheep I am , I must tell you all that when you do not see me here for a while it means that I am very, very busy and do not even have time to think of writing my stories. I have missed you all though, my dear friends from nearby and far far away. As you can see I am here now sitting in my garden at Clover Cottage. It has been raining here very heavily which I am happy about as my garden has sprouted lots of new leaves and my plants and herbs have revived in a most miraculous way. I have been eating lots of herbs lately. I love to pick huge bunches of them to put in my omelette every morning. Oh what fun it is to go out into my garden in the early morning sunshine and come back into my cosy kitchen with a huge bunch of mixed herbs, I have Rosemary. Tarragon, 2 types of Thyme , 3 types of Basil, a minty thing that is very minty but not just normal mint , Rucola and Marjoram. I chop them all up together with some spring onions for my omelette which by the way turns a delightful shade of green when loaded down with all of those herbs.
I was a little bit worried that they may taste bitter in my omelette but they did not , they just taste herby !
Herbs are very good for me and I want to plant more and more and more again. I want them to grow into great big bushes so that I never run out of them.
Love from Sherbetx

Sherbet is sending you all sunshine and blessings
Just a quick hello from me, Sherbet Sheep as I am sitting here in the sunshine.
At this very moment, I am thinking of you all and wanted to send you lots of sunshiny, rainbow coloured blessings to start your week off in a harmonious and joyful way.
I am resting here on the grass after eating an omelette packed full of herbs from my garden.
I see that the slugs do not like this sunshine. I did not see any on my lettuce this morning.
Oh well, this is a short, sweet message letting you all know that my thoughts are with you.
Don't worry if you think my face looks a little bit sad today, I am perfectly alright, I am just lost in my thoughts that is all and sometimes little sad bits happen in my mind especially when I think of my dear friend Reginald Rabbit who now lives in heaven.
Love Sherbetx

Paris adventures with Sherbet Sheep. What fun!
Oh my goodness, I am having such a wonderful time here in my favourite city, Paris. One of the reasons that I love it here so much is all of the scrumptious food I can see everywhere in every single street and every single market.
It is so delightfully rainbow coloured and it reminds me of my vegetable garden at Clover Cottage except that I could not hope to grow all of the magnificent things I see here. Every grocery and food shop window and market stall is truly a visual feast and my mouth is watering on every corner.
I am going to put lots of my photos on my stories pages while I am here so that you can share my experience with me. I wish you could all be walking around these lovely streets with me. It is a little bit cold but I have my woolly coat to keep me warm. As you can see I am wearing a new French beret made for me by the very talented Kathy cat. She is truly very clever indeed .
I found the very smelly cheese shop that is near to Mango's Auntie's house. I know that both Mango mouse and Manu mouse just love that smelly cheese but I just want to run away from
it ! I think you can see from my picture how very smelly it is, you may even be able to smell
it ! I found myself missing Clover Cottage a little bit when I saw a big bunch of carrots that looked a lot like the ones I grow in my garden, How beautiful they were, with lush green leaves and the best orange colour, just like carrots should be.
Tomorrow I will walk and walk and walk again. I might have a lovely ride on the metro too I know that I am only a little Sherbet sheep but I am a very adventurous sheep and I like to fill my days up with happy things. I wonder what fun things I will see tomorrow. I will wake up very early and I will go to the shop around the corner and buy a delicious, crunchy crusted baguette for breakfast.
I must say that I ended my perfect day with a last look at the famous, magnificent Eiffel Tower.
I am very grateful to have had such a lovely day today. I am very blessed and cannot wait until tomorrow. I wonder what surprises will be in store for me as I wander around the streets again. There is so much to see and to love here.
When I went back to Mango's Aunty Manu mouse's house, I tiptoed along on her squeaky floorboards ( they still squeaked loudly) and flopped down in absolute tiredness. Oh what happy dreams I will have tonight. Goodnight everyone. See you tomorrow.
From a very tired but happy Sherbet Sheepx

Sherbet's herb garden
A cheery hello to everyone out there. It is a lovely morning here
in my amazing garden. Doodle, Mango and Pearl all stayed at my
cottage last night after eating our lovely, healthy vegetable dinner. We
are all feeling very tired after all of our hard work yesterday so we
are having a quiet, restful day. Today, Mango and I picked some
herbs from my herb garden. We all like to put fresh herbs in our
cooking and our salads and we also make lovely refreshing hot tea with
them too. We picked a nice basketful of herbs so there is enough to share. I will divide them up into separate paper bags for Mango, Pearl and Doodle to take home with them. The herbs are growing very well in my garden, they are really growing
too well as in some places they are taking over! The Mint is the
naughtiest as it has escaped its' herb garden borders and has started
to spread itself all around the cabbage. The Rosemary has grown into a
huge fragrant bush and everytime I pass it, I breathe in it's unique
perfume and it fills me with joy. We picked a lovely selection of
herbs to use in our recipes, Rosemary, Basil, Thyme, Mint, Sage and
Parsley. Can you recognise any of them in my picture?
