    DL - your post snuck in.  Those pelmenies look good but I'm still not going anywhere near margarine.

    Dove - if you do get some curcuma/turmeric for WW make sure it has some Bioperine in the formulation as this makes it much more effective.   Good for inflammation generally and brains too apparently.  

    Pdoc - It may be as well to make your garden less labour intensive anyway but I do hope you get your fitness back soon.  Meanwhile, enjoy the degree studies.  They sound stimulating.  As Dove says, change course when you have to or maybe get some maths coaching?

    Walkies done, coffee drunk.  Back to the sewing for me........

    How lovely.

    Courier has just delivered a very nice bottle of wine.

    It was from a young girl [ mid 20's ] who was a patient with me, the last time I was in. I spent a long time talking to her, trying to help her understand what was going on, and I have been rewarded.

    Good - lovely thing you did and lovely to be appreciated.

    Possum has just phoned.  Can I make her some more pyjamas too..........but put a label in so she can tell front from back on the trousers before she puts them on!

    Wind getting up now and heavy raindrops falling.   Might even be hail.

    I have to put some contrasting coloured threads in the back of the neckband of crewneck sweaters I knit for my son, even tho it's perfectly obvious to me which is the back ... apparently it's not so easy when you're in a hurry

    I've had a word with Wonky about the turmeric pills ... she's going to wait until she gets the results of the blood tests  ... probably very sensible image

    For those who have his interests at heart, OH had a large helping of last night's leftover casserole of ox cheeks, peas and potatoes. image

    Think I prefer the salmon I had for lunch, Dove!

    Just back from seeing son 2 and 3 adorable grandsons. Have read Peter Rabbit and fed and cuddled the baby. OH has gone to choir practice.

    We are off to Norfolk tomorrow.
