Dolls' clothes day

I've been working on the trousers of the boy doll. They are a pair of striped dungerees, with a large breast pocket situated in the middle, with a sealing ship motif on it. I've finished the front of the trousers and cut out the back part. It's fairly finicky work, with lots of small details, but as I don't have a headline for it I can do it as fast or as slowly as it comes. *g*

Today it was slow work, which took me the most part of the morning; that there were several things on the telly that I wanted to watch didn't help. Also, we had laundry day, Mum had her weekly shower (always a somewhat complicated process) and I had to cook, too. So, writing got short shrift again; perhaps I'll manage to do my obligatory two sentences in the middle of the night like yesterday.

At least cooking was fun. I've upgraded my Käsespätzle with some canned tuna and tomato puree, and the result was surprisingly... Italian, I'd say. Add to the fact that we finally consumed the last of the (fairly horrible) red champagne left over from New Year's Eve, in lieu of red wine (which neither of us likes), and we had a somewhat mediterranean meal. ;))

Social life was reduced to a (lovely) text message from [livejournal.com profile] the_wild_iris, who has finally received my Christmas card, so that was nice.

Oh yes, I once saw the sister of one of them in a museum!

I used to have plastic Charlie Brown and Lucy dolls when I was a little kid that were older than I was (they had belonged to my older cousin before me) that i loved and I saw the same ones in a toy museum a few years ago.
