Smelling of Christmas

I also cooked lunch today: carrot soup and mushroom goulash with pasta. Mum approved of the results very much, so I'm content.
I also finished the last regular page of the baby book. It was a fairly detail-heavy one, with an accordion card that's bound together with a ribbon, so I had to be very careful with it. I was lucky, though, it turned out exactly how I wanted it, so that's good.
After lunch, Mum and I braved the streets again. The weather was pleasant: not too cold and not too warm, and the wind stopped for a while, too. I'm relieved that I could take her out again; she really needs fresh air.
My friend Evie called less than an hour ago. The garden party tomorrow is still a go, unless something happens weather-wise again. I hope it doesn't. I need to get out of the house and so something different badly.
