A big Robin has been running all over the mud today.
I know what she's looking for.

I'm not going to interfere with her, but I'm not gonna show her where those earthworms are, either.

I’m currently watching a Disney movie about swimming. It’s a true to life story about the first woman to successfully swim the English Channel. It was a fabulous movie.

I Ihink I met her when I was a kid. Was her name Gertrude Ederly or something like that? I lost her autograph,

What are those orange ping pong balls?
I'm not touching those till someone tells me.

Those are truffles rolled in cocoa. They’ll go well with the coffee.

Yep, that's what I was going to say as well. They do look a bit orangy. Orange goes well with chocolate, though so, maybe orange-coco truffles?

@Babs2u - That’s right. Her name was Gertrude and she went by the name Trudy.
Here are some photos . I highly recommend watching the movie- Young Woman and the Sea. It’s very entertaining. It’s produced by Disney so you know it’s good quality.

That’s a really old-fashioned name. I never thought of that being the derivation of the two Trudys I knew.

She swam the English Channel in 14 hours 31 minutes in August 6th, 1926, so it IS an old fashioned name.
