More knitted craftiness :-) A baby cardie to be sold in a local PDSA charity shop and a pair of socks for me :-) On the needles at moment is a pair of purple chunky socks for a friend :-) First one nearly done.





Don't be afraid of left overs.

Tonight, I made pies using up the remains of the mincemeat casserole we had last night for dinner. Accompanying it, were some chippy things made with left over jacket potatoes, and some left over roast potatoes. I cooked a little mixed vegetable as well, and all in all, a very yummy dinner, costing no more than a quid each for hubby and I :-)

Socks

I've been going sock making crazy again :-)





Stonehenge walk

Today I went on a National Trust walk at Stonehenge in Wiltshire with my eldest daughter and my hubby. Although sunny, it was quite chilly as the wind had a bit of a bite to it. Here's some pictures taken on the walk.
















Sky life


I love skies as you will see. Photos of skies will appear quite often in my pasts :-)


Outside my garden one morning a few weeks back

More baking

As one of my sons used to say. "You can't call it homemade bread. It's bread made at home in a machine :-)


Catch up

Well I've been a bit distracted the last few days. Don't what with, because I couldn't tell you!!!! Just the last week has disappeared before I'd felt it had begun.

I can't say I've been all that resourceful lately. I've had small moments where I felt I could tap myself on my back, but I don't think for any real amazing feats of wonderfullness lol.

I have been busy knitting. Been busy making socks.
Done a little baking.
Went on a National Trust walk at Stonehenge. That was good. Sun was out, though there was a cold wind.

I saw on Amazon a book about living on ten pounds a week. I've put it in my wish list for my Kindle. It looks interesting. Thinking I might have a go at that. Ten pounds per person in the house :-) When I decide to attempt it,, I shall blog how it goes. Think I'll read the book first though :-)
