It knows how to rain here

Well, I am guessing it rained right across the country today.  I got soaked when we ventured into town this morning - me in search of Goat's Milk Yoghurt (didn't find any) and to do some forgotten banking.  I had rising damp from being splashed by the water underfoot and my shoes are still drying out, whilst my sopping wet socks went straight in the laundry basket.  At least I had a dry jacket in the car so could hang up the wet one over the back of the seat.

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.
