Clearing out the glory hole!

As ever, let's go back to last night and the WI meal.  The restaurant was in a college and our menu was designed by the head chef for the night - who happened to be Lincolnshire's young chef of the year.  Expectations were high - and we were not disappointed.

Lincolnshire haslet Cote Hill Blue, mushrooms, celery & walnuts

Doesn't it all look nice? 

 

 

 

 

 

Today started with a visit to church for a working party - the dumping ground needed a good "bottoming out" and "many hands make light work" - even in a cold church on a cold day!!  Once home I just couldn't resist - I had to make a third version of the mini storage bag - this time double layers to add strength to the bag.  They take about 30 mins to make and could become addictive!

 

Next up was a dog walk, before the sky becomes too much darker and threatens rain, followed by a general tidy round before settling in front of the tv with the ironing.  Can you please try to hide your jealousy at such a hedonistic life ?
