I am finding I am drifting through the days now, my purposeful cleaning and sorting is done and I am a bit without direction. I've even finished my crochet and need a new project ...but how many rugs does a Queenslander need ?? It has been very cold for us though - only got to 14 degrees during the day - a May record low for us !!Helsiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15136273834165751276noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5472301814571448308.post-87973712002890958892020-05-24T15:00:50.177+01:002020-05-24T15:00:50.177+01:00I have a glass of water with my half glass of wine...I have a glass of water with my half glass of wine.

So much more enjoyable than my salad!<br />I hate ironing and am sorry to say that if it's something I don't need immediately, it gets left for ages. I've found that if I leave things like bed linen on the line for a day or two, the overnight damp helps get rid of the creases, so I rarely need to struggle to iron the duvet!Coppa's girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16459503600694841117noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5472301814571448308.post-32972283880741930372020-05-24T07:30:19.437+01:002020-05-24T07:30:19.437+01:00Is the baker at Frayssinet still there?Is the baker at Frayssinet still there?Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10787732343048847565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5472301814571448308.post-73619978961810481722020-05-24T07:29:33.184+01:002020-05-24T07:29:33.184+01:00I usually only drink half a glass of wine at lunch...I usually only drink half a glass of wine at lunch time.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10787732343048847565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5472301814571448308.post-7420034278384407862020-05-24T07:28:23.823+01:002020-05-24T07:28:23.823+01:00Some varieties are safe for culinary purposes.Some varieties are safe for culinary purposes.Suehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10787732343048847565noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5472301814571448308.post-60063889258080696082020-05-24T04:45:39.896+01:002020-05-24T04:45:39.896+01:00That bread looks very similar to our Frayssinet &#...That bread looks very similar to our Frayssinet 'petit levain'.

Luckily mu foxgloves and lupins are a bit behind yours and are not quite high enough to be affected. I got a smile at your ironing story - I did exactly the same yesterday. I find I need to iron as soon as it comes off the line or out of the drier otherwise it hangs about for days. My sheets from Monday finally ended up in the airing cupboard after a good smoothing down yesterday.The Weaver of Grasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947971556343746883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5472301814571448308.post-9666520424337053432020-05-23T13:54:43.829+01:002020-05-23T13:54:43.829+01:00A simple, rustic lunch.
