Truly Scrumptious - Buttons & Bows

Good morning to ya,

Hope you are all well, I'm a bit nervous as I've got an ECG this morning.

It all started because my BP was high & they wanted to stop my HRT 

(which I'm still not 100% happy about taking)

when they checked again my BP was perfect, but my pulse was 118, I've had a monitor at home all week & I think it's been fine, so fingers crossed all will be ok.

Anyway it's challenge time at Truly Scrumptious and this week we want to see
