Why, Pinterest, why?
Nov. 1st, 2023 06:38 pmAfter several weeks of a new upload mechanism - one that resulted in ordinary-sized pictures - they've now switched back to the previous one, thus the photos I upload are tiny again. *grrrrrrrrrrrr!*
So you'd be better off if you didn't click on the picture below; at least here I can size it properly. It is a long overdue pic of the failed pink grapefruit jam that ended up as syrup. Therefore I haven't decorated the jars (as a form of punishment), but the... syrup itself looks very pretty, so I thought I'd share the view:

Otherwise, it was a quiet day. I washed my hair and did a surprising amount of writing while Mum attended to Mass on the telly, then I worked a bit on the small pillow cases. If everything goes according to plan, Eenie will come tomorrow and bring some dried lavender with her. Yay!
Then I fell asleep for an hour and a half over the crossword puzzle. Consequently no Topfenknödel was made - no time, as Mum didn't want to wake me - and we ate leftover Tütensuppe with sandwiches and the rest of the coffee cake. After that we went for a walk, but it was unexpectedly cold and we weren't clad warmly enough, so we turned back after a short time. The odd thing is, I'm still sleepy, despite my long and pleasant nap.
