I made a big vat of vegetable soup today, with some spicy beans in it, and lots of dark green cabbage. All in the name of anti-inflammatory food. I casseroled two big chicken breasts and added half of one of those, still hot, to a bowl of the soup which I had as my main meal tonight. I am still feeling stuffed.
A work in Progress. I know they look a bit haphazard, but they aren't finished yet and when trimmed will be the front and back for a Lynette Anderson bag I am making. I will do feather embroidery along the joins. There is a fold-over flap which will have an embroidered design and a bit of applique.
Every time I sat down on the sofa today I was surrounded by/covered in cats - the two tabbies, Theo and Ghengis both wanted my lap, whilst Alfie sat on my shoulders and purred. Little Whale was a queue of one outside Tam's bedroom door, but was disappointed as I didn't let him in - he was wet!
I had the dentist again yesterday, for another round of canal root treatment - they have been cleaned out again and filled and the old crown has a temporary filling again. We shall see if it all settles down - if not, then the toof will be out.
Love your patchwork design.
ReplyDeleteGod bless.
It will look better when it's trimmed and shaped though.
DeleteBB, the rain in my little patch of paradise has been biblical. I have to say it has brought us Airbnb business as we have had a number of people ditching their tents due to wind and rain to come and pitch up at ours, so to speak so I suppose I can't complain too much! We have been soooo busy recently and have most of our dates full for the Eisteddfod full, too. I did make a little error, about which I still have to tell hubby, where I didn't increase the chalet charge of one listing so have missed out on £150 but I think I'll be over it by next August!!!!!xx
ReplyDeleteI'm glad you got a silver lining from the weather. I hope the folk will do some return bookings too! I hadn't thought of you being booked for the Eistedfodd - you were obviously in the right spot this year.
DeleteYou can't teach us anything about rain here in Bellerby and Leyburn BB. Many houses are still flooded and two or three bridges are washed away. Today had been sunny and windy but thankfully dry so things are beginning to dry up everywhere. But many weeks of clearing up ahead for anyone who was flooded.
ReplyDeleteAh no, and you got it first, sadly. I feel so sorry for the people who were flooded - let's hope we get some good weather to see August out so things dry up a bit.
Deleteoh, root canal eugh, i feel for you! bloomin teeth are a problem all our lives really, from cutting babay teeth to old age!! leanne x
ReplyDeleteGreat that you've made it through the keyhole to get here! I ate too many sweets as a child and now I am paying the price! Jury is still out on weather the toof will survive or have to be removed. So far, touch wood, it doesn't feel too upset . . . but if the abscess returns, that's it.
DeleteHosed it down all day yesterday, ruined my game of cricket today
ReplyDeleteOh, what rotten luck Simon.
DeleteRegarding the rain, unless folk have been for an unfortunately wet holiday in West Wales, I don't think they have any idea how much it can rain here! My husband had never spent winters here until he met me, and kept saying how heavily it was raining. I'd say "You've not seen anything yet!" He found out!
ReplyDeleteAh yes, and it's the different varieties of rain - the doggedly persistant, the chucking it every which way, the sideways rain, and of course, the Biblical proportions rain! We've got used to it and at least I can walk in the rain but I can't when it's hot, humid, pollen-y.
DeleteJust catching up with your blog BB. I love the colours of your quilted bag-in-the-making.
ReplyDeleteThanks DW - just went through my stash and bunged a few together. It will be a WIP for a while though I fear.
