More stuff for the fair

I've finished the almost-forgotten pencil holders and am quite content how they turned out. See for yourself:



I've also made surprise box #108. Things are shaping up nicely. So much for the good news.

The bad news is that:
a) We had a visit from the chiropodist lady, who not only talked us to dead but also managed to butcher a bit my feet, so both big toes are somewhat worse for the wear. Putting on shoes tomorrow will be a joy - NOT! But the fridge is practically empty, so I'll have to go out, at least to the supermarket next corner.
b) The planned café visit with my young friend Adrienne (originally meant to happen tomorrow morning) got cancelled because her little son caught some bug in kindergarten. But considering the "joys" of wearing closed shoes right now it is a loss that doesn't devastate me completely. We'll simply have to reschedule; hopefully for a later time when I'll be able to walk properly again.

Orange cake recipe

Dear noadvertising, this one is for you!



I hope the actual recipe is readable. Taking a photo with the aging mini from a glossy recipe book is tricky, and I'm such a rubbish photographer.

If it is too blurry, PM me your email address and I'll send you the original photo.
