Not much happening right now
Aug. 25th, 2023 10:39 pmIt is still very hot: we have third grade heat alert for the entire weekend. At least I didn't have to leave the house today.
World Athletics Championships are still going on, so we're still permanently glued in front of the telly, with naps between two blocks of events. Fortunately, all I had to do cooking-wise was to boil pasta for the chicken paprikash Mum made two days ago. Alas, the salad I'd worked on so diligently has gone bad, even in the fridge. Our fault for not eating a cooked meal for two days. *sigh*
Crafting-wise I've figured out how to make the hinges for the inner binding of the songbook and sewn in the front page. The next four pages will be hell, though, and I'm a bit unsure how to fix the spine of the book. Well, kommt Zeit, kommt Rat, as the Germans say. Perhaps I'll take a break tomorrow and make some more little purses while watching the athletics, since I've created some more felt rests due to the hinges.
Other than that, we're still in survival mode: as little work as possible, lots of water and when nothing else helps, ice cream. Lidl sells these sorbet things that are water-based, with various fruit flavours; they are very good against thirst and being overheated.
