    Oops, forgot to say good day!

    I've just finished a "normal" Saturday morning. Clothes washing done, some dusting done and now it's time to play a bit. I've got another top cut out. Should be interesting to see how it fits as I've been playing with various pattern pieces. :scratch:

        Maybe on the hanger because I can't suck in my gut and hold my breath long enough to pose and shoot! :heehee:

        I got distracted and set up bobbin hooks. And I have to rethread both the serger and the coverstitch before start so best get on with that. :)

              Aloha everyone,

              I've been getting a fair amount done out in the garden each day but in small batches as the cold gets to me. Sarafi tends to sit alongside me when I'm working so I can warm my fingers up every so often :whistle:. He stays with me if I keep chatting to him - and he answers. Although I think he's say 'I want some food' :heehee:

              We're taking one of the old ladies we look after out to the Indian tonight. She had a fall a while back and broke six ribs and this will be her first trip out. She now has carers coming in each day but she's improving a lot. Her memory has got worse since the fall and we're hoping that going out will give her a boost. Someone else 'an old friend of hers' is going to take her to a coffee afternoon at a club they belong to.

              We still only go out to places when they are not busy and don't yet feel ready to go anywhere busy. Mrs Shiney used to go to the cinema with her but doesn't want to be near that many people yet (she's classified as vulnerable). I don't go to the cinema as the volume is always too high for me. I'm a delicate little flower! :roflol:

              Take care :biggrin:

              Aloha!

                Good morning Upsydaisy and Shiney and anyone else who is rising!, Shiney I know what you mean about the volume in cinemas, far to loud, I have one ear that’s not 100% hearing and it’s too loud for that :heehee:

                  Good day
                  It is 21f -6c with a wind chill of -14c , cloudy and dropping fine flakes of snow. The guessers got it right this time!

                  I'm having a cuppa and my show will be starting in 4 minutes. I'll get some vacuuming done and try the custard slice recipe this morning while it airs too.

                  Cheers all :coffee:

                      The puff pastry was nice and flaky, the icing cooperated, the choclolate on the icing was okay but I'm not much of a decorator, but the custard did not thicken. It looks like it's okay until I try to cut it.

                      I'll try a bit more corn flour next time I try to make it. :scratch:

                      @Flumpy I took a pic of the top but when you look at the picture, it just looks like a black rag on a hanger. :heehee:

                        Yes but everything is there Lori, looks aren't everything. Beauty is in the eye of the beholder....and I for one behold custard slices!!

                        I bet they still taste great!:biggrin:

                          Good morning everyone.:)

                          Still a bit dark and grey outside but I think we'll have an OKish day for January.

                          Meeting up with a friend and off to the cinema at lunchtime . I can't believe it's almost 2 years since I last went!!:yikes: It will be so good to resume our regular visits once more.:dbgrtmb:

                          Enjoy your day:spinning:

                                Good day
                                The weather is same old same old again. Cloudy, -14c 10f and we are expecting a couple of inches of snow. Nothing exciting. Almost boring!

                                I haven't been to the cinema for years either @Upsydaisy and @Michael Hewett . When I did go, it was only maybe once or twice a year. I do like live theater but those are shut down too.

                                Take care all and cheers :coffee:
