BBQ time

It's that time again. The sun is shining, the sky is blue, and a tabby cat's thoughts inevitably turn towards food.

Elderberry Wine

This has been bubbling away nicely and is now starting to clear.  Looking forward to bottling my first batch of home brew wine in about two weeks time:-)

Poor things. It's winter and they just want to snuggle up to snooze!

It's a Box

I wish I could be this easy to please. If it's cardboard and a little bit enclosed then Merry is a happy moggie

My pirate name is:

Bloody Bess Flint

Every pirate lives for something different. For some, it's the open sea. For others (the masochists), it's the food. For you, it's definitely the fighting. Like the rock flint, you're hard and sharp. But, also like flint, you're easily chipped, and sparky. Arr!

Hibernating

I'm back. I haven't been around for a while because frankly the last few months haven't been good. My mum has been ill and needed surgery over the summer and that combined with my twins starting senior school has left me seriously stressed out and not able to cope very well.

I'm relying on my crafting to keep me sane and on track and to this end I have decided to gather up all my WIPs and knuckle down to finishing them before I start any major new projects. I'm also determined to do some stash busting. The house is bursting at the seams with wool and some of it has been sitting around for years! It's time to knuckle down and get some of it used up so I'm furtling through all my cupboards and finding all the things that need finishing and sorting out some projects that will suit what stash yarn is around right now. My new year's resolution is to declutter and simplify my life as all this complication is just too much to handle.
