- I made a new top. It was meant to be a dress, but I failed to adjust for the fact that I am much taller than most Japanese women.
- I love it though, and have bought more fabric so I can make myself a dress version.
- I discovered that the best place to take a full legth photo of myself without balancing on the arm of a sofa or having to tidy an entire room first, is the changing room at work.
- Basil is back in the kitchen - I run my hands through it when I stand at the sink.
- I like these tiles at Aldgate station.
- Graham is listening to James Brown and treating us all to funk.
- I have been running - but not enough. I miss it.
- I baked brioche rolls, and Graham made a tarte au citron.
- The washing machine couldn't read the label that said the pillow was washable.
- When it's sunny, and I am not at work, I cycle over to the Olympic park with a quilt and sunbathe.
naughty washing machine. love everything on the list x
ReplyDeleteFantastic top, clever you. It will look lovely as a dress as well, I'll look forward to seeing it. Lucky you having a man that makes tarte au citron, it's my absolute favourite, love, love, love it. I hope you have a good weekend Nancy. CJ xx
ReplyDeleteWhat a lovely list... I especially like your new top... but not the bit about your pillow!
ReplyDeleteLove love love that top - and you look lovely in it
ReplyDeleteBeautiful frock...why do I keep going wrong? I can make dresses/tops Etc and they always look great...until I try them on. I always seem to mess up the measurements, and no idea why. I cut really carefully, check the finished garment measurements etc etc...but always look daft. Ho hum. Shall stick to cushions and hair scrunchies. Beautiful fabric you chose.x
ReplyDeleteI love this top, you wear it very well. What fabric did you use? My washing machine can't read either, it shrunk my 10 year old daughter's hand knitted cotton cardigan to toddler size even though the labels said washable at 30 degrees. Running dwindles down to once a week during the school holidays (started in Scotland), which is a shame. Oh, I am new here and I like it. Have a lovely weekend. x
ReplyDeleteWhat a great post, I love the top, it suits you perfectly and as for the tarte citron I'm so jealous !
ReplyDeleteI ended up here from someone commenting in Tales from a Happy House, to look at your dress that someone mentioned, it is very nice and then jumped back to the one you say is a tunic for public decency that is also very nice. the statement made me laugh and then I am reading that post and you are talking about the " washing machine not knowing the pillow said it was washable" which really made me laugh as I have had that happen, so thank you from Iowa , USA
