More craftiness

[wiseheart]

I've made another 6 Christmas cards, and I've finished the train itself. Alas, the buttons I used for wheels turned out a bit too heavy, but those are the only ones in the right size I have - and the only ones I've got 6 of. So they'll have to do. Also, I won't be able to use the sliding mechanism from the tutorial because I've made a mistake right at the beginning, but there's another option to make it work. Not as good as the original, but I won't tell it the 2-year-old recipient, so hopefully, there won't be any complaints. [/sarcasm]

Other than that, I cooked lunch, which was yummy: stuffed chicken joints and Tütensuppe. We weren't able to eat it all, so there will be leftovers form yesterday for tomorrow and leftovers from today for the day after. Which is good, as both days promise to be busy, and I wouldn't be able to do much cooking.

I don't think the 2 year old will mind. :)

Not having to cook is always nice.

I loved Tütensuppe but often got a headache after eating. Now we´ll only have Fleischklößchensuppe now and then, because its taste is so addictive. I do my own seasoning mix for soups without glutamate now. Not as tasty as Maggi or Knorr, but less headache-inducing!

I'm glad I haven't had any problems with Tütensuppe so far; it makes life so much easier! I always buy the ALDI version, as it's much cheaper than Maggi or Knorr.

Oh, yes! I love baking but don't particularly like cooking, so to escape it is always a bonus.

No, I don't think so, either. It's just me, pissed off because things don't work out the way I'd like them to. *g*

Yeah, that sucks.
