Treat Day . . .

 

This was my special Brunch today.  There must be a Blue Moon tonight because that is the only time I have one of these pattiserie fruit pies.  Scrummy!

I phoned the Doctors' surgery first thing and got an appointment to have my eye checked.  She gave me a prescription for antibiotic drops, 4 times a day for 5 days.  My eye feels a little easier already and the discomfort in my tear duct and top of ??sinuses, has gone. She said it didn't present as an SCC so I think my appt. at the local Minor Injuries next week may be a waste of their time, but I will know for sure.

I remembered to roast my chicken today and really enjoyed my meal, especially the roasties which I haven't had more than once since Christmas!

A cheat's chicken gravy made at the last minute, with some Chicken gravy thickener and boiling water.  This was a big meal for me!

This is a little cushion for the tiny teddy chair I bought recently.  I have decided the ancient grey paint shabby chic look is not doing it any favours, so I will paint it white tomorrow to cheer it up a bit.  These were all (apart from the central square) little bits of Liberty fabrics I bought a bag of at Malvern last year.  They were lovely to work with.

I have been cutting fabrics for the curtains too, and unpicking the deep blue from the blocks for Rosie's quilt, and have replaced it on two with the mid blue I got at Calico Kate's.  Off to unpick the others now.

Today's podcast was about Guy Fawkes and the Gunpowder Plot, and on Saturday I had epic listenings about King Arthur and Tintagel; Stonehenge, ancient ritual an the origins of paganism; and a.n.other.
