Windy, Wet and ... What happened to spring??

 We seem to have returned to winter this last week.  Very cold, windy, raining...  But I managed to get a couple of wintery walks in...






Good knitting and reading weather though...

I finished these two baby blankets I had put aside to crochet Marnie's blanket...


They have gone to one of K4C August charities, Hope in a Suitcase (Tasmania), for babies and children going into foster care...


Now knitting pet blankets for one of K4C September charities...

And reading this 'so good' book.  I can't believe I've had it on my bookshelves for a couple of years and haven't read it!  

I seem to be in Amish mode at the moment.  Finished The Amish Way and will read Amish Grace when I finish my current read. (Both from my bookshelves) 

It's also good eating weather...
I picked up this sweet little (6 inches in diameter) Pyrex dish at the op shop last week for $2.50. 

So, I made apple crumble :)

And the new laptop??  Don't ask!!  I'm consoling myself with apple crumble and cream.

Have a blessed week!

  1. Sounds like you’ve made the best of the chilly weather! 🥶💛 Those blankets are such a gift of love, and apple crumble with cream… oh yes, that’s the perfect comfort food! 🥰 Hope this week feels a little lighter (and warmer!) for you xx

    1. Much nicer weather today, but now I've hurt me back :(
      So I'm continuing to knit and eat apple crumble :)
      I hope your week is going well. xx

  2. The nice weather will come, Lynda! You know it will. At least you don't have snow covering everything. But one does long for the greenness of things, I know.

    1. Yes, nicer weather did arrive today, and although snow is pretty, I'm glad we don't get it here.
      I managed to get out and do a letterbox drop (138 houses) for our new morning church services starting on Sunday. But now I'm resting as I hurt my back before I left the house, the walking helped, but now that I am sitting it's not so good.
      I continue to console myself with knitting and apple crumble :)) xx
