Some answers.
Happy Friday my friends!
I thought I'd round off my week and bring in the weekend with some answers to
last Tuesday's wonderings.
Yesterday I suggested to Miss Pepper that she be the mum in a game of Mums and Dads. She was happy enough with the suggestion. So we started to play. Soon enough I realised that she had put on such a posh accent and every second word was
daaarling or
sweeeetie. This sent me on another spiral of wondering. Do I really sound like that? Do any of the mums she knows sound like that? Where is that coming from?
Farmer Bren's memorable food experience was something about a paddock to plate experience. About the joys of killing an animal he had raised and then cooking it (outside!) and feeding it to his kids. Eeeewwwww!!!
The lice? Well I've combed and combed but something tells me we ain't seen the end of them.
Apparently the masses of dragon flies flying around at the moment have everything to do with all the rain over the summer. That may be the case but I wonder what it means when a gazillion bees swarm and then land all together on the wisteria vine outside the carport? They smell like honey en masse like that too. Amazing.
I have never, not ever, gone back to sleep in the day since I've been a mother. Its just not in me to do so. There's just too much to do.
Our family's loved one is fine after his tests. We got the best results we could have hoped for. THANK YOU for your kind words and concern.
The silencer for the magimix? Who cares. What I really need is a silencer for my sewing machine. After sewing all that
twill tape my head feels like it is going to explode. I think I need to invest in some noise canceling headphones so I can listen to that
Never Not Knitting lady in peace.
The jury is out on the whole wholesome vs cool thing. I guess it depends on the crowd you hang out with.
Ten years olds are pretty sure they know everything but at least she came to me for advice on what to wear to casual day today. Maybe I am still cool in her eyes.
We bought five litres of the colour formerly known as Brittany to paint the inside of the caravan the other day. The next step is to rename it something spacious sounding and calm and soothing.
Halving a baking recipe seems to work for me most of the time as long as I am concentrating on the task at hand and not being distracted by plaits in the mixture or grubby hands trying to
help me.
Meringues...piped vs spooned? Neither in this wet and humid weather. BUM!!!
So that's it folks, some answers and few more wonderings.
Its been a full on week this week at
Foxs Lane. A lot of playing with Miss Pepper, a lot of preparing for market and not a lot of me time. I had huge expectations for the first week back at school. I was going to get so much done. Oh well, that'll just have to happen next week.
I wonder if you have found the answers to any of your questions this week?
I hope we all have a wonderful and happy weekend.
See ya. X
