Fresh Bread !!

Bought myself a bread making machine a few days ago because I can no longer knead the dough as long as necessary ...... made a lovely wholemeal loaf this morning - lovely size and flavour and soooooo easy ......

My little grandson Joseph is now 5 and three quarters .... getting bigger every day - time flies by and it seems hardly any time at all since he was born ....

An update - 21 April 2010

At last I have got round to remembering I have a blog ! .... since the last time I have been doing some work on my Random Thoughts sampler which was a birthday gift from my fellow mods on the Friendly Stitchers group .... I am almost half way there and it has been nice to stitch ....

I am also happy to say I have finally got a small greenhouse ! ..... wanted one for ages cos the small plastic one I had for a year was really not much good .... decided to get one which has plastic glass or perspex or whatever it is called - safety glass stuff. It only measures 6' x 6' but all I could afford and I only have a small patio out back to put it on ....... it took my son and DH almost a week to construct due to extremely bad instructions and faulty parts which had to be exchanged .... I won't be buying from this particular company again ! I now have some plants started - carrots, tomatoes and some flowers plus a pomegranate seed which my little grandson planted and it is shooting away !

Been a few weeks now since I last updated this blog .... haven't done quite as much stitching as usual as I have been busy with other things .... however I did manage to finish a birth sampler for my friend's grand-daughters ... wrapped it up and gave it to her - forgot to take a picture !! It was a sampler I made myself using various flower fairies ....
Still looking after daughter's little puppy during the day - but DD and partner are moving next week and after that we will see how little puppy gets on - but still think it too early for her to be left alone all day while they work ... we will miss her when she finally goes :(

Sat 6th March

Finally finished my ASAW SAL .... perhaps now I can get started on my Mirabilia project or even The Scarlet Wizard - having to do this one again - I started it on the black but it is 16 count and difficult for my eyes to see - only had about a quarter of it done - so will start it again on cream or something ....

I am still trying to figure out how to have my pictures not land on top of the writing at the top of my blog ! If anyone can help, please let me know .... unless this post sorts it out !

well I deleted the info at the top of the page but now don't know where to add the info !!!!
