Being busy

Last night we had some snowfall, but when I got up the walkways were already cleared, so I decided to go a-hunting: to find the necessary ingredients for Mum's enormous (at least that's the plan) birthday cake. And oh wonder of wonders, I actually found everything I needed, and I only had to go to two different shops. Considering that new Covid cases had broken all previous records over here, I consider that a good thing.

I made Shepherd's Pie for lunch - that means I won't have to cook in the next two days. That's especially lucky for Monday, when we'll have our scheduled cleaning frenzy.

In the afternoon I worked a bit on Baby Book #2. The inside binding thingie is now done, which is a relief, and I've more or less made Page #4. There are two tags I still have to make, but the pocket turned out very pretty, and I'm happy with it. I think it's time to make (and post) some photos of the already finished parts, soon, just to show off a bit. Showing off is good for the psyche.

I had a long, nice chat with H. (Little Emma's grandmother) that would have driven most males strong, raving mad, I think. We've discussed kitchen appliances for almost half an hour. *g*

So yeah, busy day. I'd have loved to squeeze in some writing, too, but it clearly wasn't meant to happen. *sigh*
