They are done and boxed and, if I say so myself, quite adorable. Take a look:



Other than finishing the gift boxes, I hopped down to Aldi and Lidl. Aldi was selling asparagus for half the price - alas, they only had green ones, which we don't like. I know, I know, every self-respecting gourmet swears that green asparagus is the thing to eat, but we don't like it. I guess we aren't self-respecting gourmets, eh? But Aldi also - quite unexpectedly - sold bananas for a really good price, so I bought some bananas. The old ones are a bit spotty, so it seems we'll have banana bread tomorrow. *g*

We also had laundry day, but cooking was a simple affair - I only had to make a salad and boil the Wiener Würstchen to the leftovers. Simple affair produced an astonishing amount of dirty dishes. Poor Mum, she always insists on doing the washing-up (although I wash half the stuff behind her back when she doesn't know), but today even she was a bit taken aback!

Not much else to report. After hanging up the washed clothes I was suitably drained and had to take a nap, which lasted longer than planned, so my 8/16 diet is disturbed again. I'll have to postpone breakfast tomorrow by at least half an hour (longer would be better), meaning that Mum and I will have breakfast at different times, which again means that the morning will go down the river again. No matter how hard I try, my time management is crap.

Yes. It's a slow process because it's not easy to keep it around Mum's schedule, but I'm now wearing one clothing size smaller than before. I used to wear size 52/54, and I'm down to size 50. Well, if we count the widely cut clothing items of Kik, I'm wearing size 48, but that's not realistic.

I'd have reached better results if only I could cut back on sweets, but it's a mental need I have a very tentative grip on. Without chocolate I couldn't get through the day. But at least I only eat it between 11 and 19 o'clock. *g*

Those teddies are going to sell so well. They are adorable. Good luck with the eating regime. I have found that there are disadvantages to living alone, but being able to set your own timetable is not one of them.

True. Everything has its two sides.

The teddies are absolutely wonderful — I am sure they will disappear from any craft stall in no time at all.

Your word in God's ear. Unfortunately, it is really hard to tell in advance which will become a burner and which won't. I've been wrong about that before. But that's okay. If they won't sell, I can always give them away as gifts.

Those teddies are so cute! I love green asparagus- way less peeling to do! Hubby is the one who prefers the white one, but never ever has he done the peeling!

I love all the Teddies! They are all so cute. Glad you named them.


My son had his Law School graduation today, he earned his Juris Doctorate and a Comparative Law degree. It's been a long time coming. Now, he is studying everyday to try and pass the Bar Exam in July so he can be an attorney.
