Trying to Catch Up with Myself

I suddenly seem to have so many things to do which are only half-done.  There's some knitting, some sewing, some books semi-read.  There are recipes I want to cook, tv programmes waiting on Catch Up TV to be caught up with.  People to see, places to go.  And always, always work to do.  Anyway, I have sneaked in a couple or three pics while I'm on here and I'll promise myself to sit down and have a proper chat with you at a later date.

My friend gave me the end of her roll of Harlequin "What a Hoot" wallpaper which now graces her kitchen.  My place mats were worn out but I salvaged three and decorated them with snippets of paper.  They'll soon wear out but they look great fun for now.
Jasmine has a little pinny and chef's hat at home, so I thought she needed one when she's here, cooking with Nanny.  Ran these up from an old pillow case!
 Son and daughter-in-law brought us a little gift on Sunday.  Can't wait to hang it up in the porch.  It's absolutely true, of course!
