Chores, chores, chores

wiseheartWe had laundry day. It is Saturday, after all.
Then I had to make lunch. I made potato cream soup - it turned out very yummy, which is a relief. Mum loves soup, all kinds of soup, and I try to keep her happy. There are too many foods she can't eat anymore since she no longer have the required amount of teeth. I made toasted sandwiches for afters, as we had leftover bread that needed to be used up. That I cut a fingertip with the potato peeler in the cooking process was but a small inconvenience.
In the "keeping Mum happy with the help of food" department I'm going to make Topfenknödel and cheesy scones tomorrow. Healthy food is overrated.
I did a tiny bit of crafting - no actual progress, as I simply got another idea about another detail that I added to the dressing room page, so basically I'm still where I was days ago. *sigh*
I missed my afternoon nap; too many stupid YouTube videos, then I couldn't fall asleep because my eyes were tired from staring at the iPad for an hour or so. I tried to rest them a bit, lying down, and when I suddenly jumped up because the landline rang, I got dizzy. Not much, just a bit, but it scared me; and reminded me not to take my comparatively good health for granted.
The best part of the day: I managed to talk Erica (another former colleague) into joining us at the café outing. I'll have to ask the café whether we need to reserve a table in advance, seeing that we'll be seven people... or so I hope.
