I know we would get on as if we had been best friends for years - but then, we do go back a long way on that forum. Are you on the rehashed one still?<br /><br />DD - I hear we are to meet up soon, which is great! Skirts are what I have in the cupboard for Special Occasions, but there aren't many of those! Glad you like the header. Have you been down that way yet?<br /><br />Simon - no, glad to say the Weasel was recycled with the stuff in the autumn clearup wheelbarrow.<br /><br />Thelma - trousers are just more practical for me and I always was a tomboy! Yup - all horribly fattening, so just as well I bake and give away. Whenever someone comes round for tea and cake, they are sent home with the rest of the cake (I just have one slice to be polite). All those scones were for our friend's freezer, as part payment for some work she did for me. (Photo later). I am the same with my preserves, I will keep a pot of not-quite-filled jam in the fridge and have some on toast about once every 6 weeks, but the rest are thankyou gifts for friends, My downfall is crisps (I daren't have them in the house) and Tesco Finest Tart au Citrone tarts . . . I try not to go near that corner of the store!<br /><br />Pat - I've not improved with keeping over sleeping - I have always been a light sleeper, as was my dad. I did, for once, feel I had thoroughly earned my relaxation! The Christian work ethic is hard to shift.<br /><br />RRobin - I have to be in the mood for knitting. I normally do crafts on the autumn and winter evenings, and garden on the summer ones. I like sewing too, but I think with big blankets of squares, it is probably better to sew them up as you go along, a row at a time.<br /><br /> <br /><br />Bovey Bellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13117332471600275100noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-43195756966480464092015-10-03T09:08:24.310-07:002015-10-03T09:08:24.310-07:00Baking items for tea look really delicious - you c...Baking items for tea look really delicious - you certainly earned your break in the afternoon!!<br /><br />Look forward to seeing the knitting photos - I'm still working on a blanket of squares I started a year ago!! Its meant for son's single bed so I think I may start sewing the squares up to see if its big enough. Sadly, although I love knitting, I loathe sewing so this is the bit I keep putting off!<br /><br />Must admit I can't remember when I last wore a skirt or dress (but it was well over 12 years ago!!).

But, frankly, after all that amazing baking (it all looks scrummy by the way) you had earned an afternoon off in the sun. And yes, I agree, long may this weather continue - we can at least dream about it then in dull November.The Weaver of Grasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947971556343746883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8569181568013465215.post-23940113619167553132015-10-02T23:45:50.001-07:002015-10-02T23:45:50.001-07:00Is it not strange that we females end up in trouse...Is it not strange that we females end up in trousers most of the time, I have just bought a skirt, because I haven't any but of course have to take the hem up.

They always look so lovely. I like older pieces of furniture anyway. Your friends are in for a real treat. Good for you spending the afternoon relaxing. The sun will help you with surviving the cold ow winter - plenty of vitamin D. I have had the flu jab today in the hope that it will stop me being poorly catching everyone else's colds. A simple cold to everyone else always ends up crippling me. Look forward to seeing the finished teddies. Glad you got time to chill. Catch you soon.
