Saturday is laundry day, plus I had to cook half the lunch (Mum volunteered to do the other half, as she's fond of spinach, unlike me), so I wasn't in the right mindset to focus on writing. Which is a shame, I so hoped to finish "Kindred Spirits during this [livejournal.com profile] picowrimo session! Not much chance for that with the progress I'm (not) making. :(

But at least I did lots of crafting. Fortunately, crafting doesn't require any higher brain functions. So I've finished the two bears for the quiet books... well, almost. I still have to sew them together and insert the lining. But their faces and limbs and whatever are stitched, the Velcro is sewn on to their backs, and I've cut out the honey pots for them, too. Tomorrow more Velcro is on the programme - the honey pots also need it. *sigh*

Then my friend Evie called and we chatted a while on the phone. Seriously, I don't know what we'd have done in these last two years without telephone. It is a life-saver, and not just because you can place emergency calls.

No, it won't be so overdone as the Great Christmas Baking Frenzy (TM).
I'm planning to bake five sorts of biscuits:

Easter egg biscuits with lemon curd

Coconut lambs

Nutella bunnies

as well as orange-flavoured chickens and an almond biscuit with various Easter figures.

That should fit into the next 5 weeks despite of the crafting. Also, I'll only deliver to friends with small children or grandchildren. Still, I'm looking forward to it.

Edit: I've added savoury cheesy bunnies and another sort of lamb biscuits to the list. But that's the end of it, I swear!
