Sep. 30th, 2018 08:20 pm... and I celebrated that fact by spending an indecent amount of money on craft papers and stickers at the Aldi supermarket. And I mean a really indecent amount, considering the fact that I can barely store what I already had. But they were so beautiful... Yes, it is an addiction. I consoled myself with the knowledge that if I would go to the Il Divo concert in December (which I won't), the cheapest ticked would cost three times as much. I still have a guilty conscience, though.
OTOH I've finished the second Christmas-themed pocket letter and it turned out really pretty. I promise pictures later. So, now that I've figured out how it works, I promised my colleague that we'll make them for the charity fair with her 6th term class. I hope it works out. At least three kids can work on one such letter together, so it will cost them less time than it cost me; especially if I produce the panels already cut and all they'll have to do is to decorate them. *knocks on wood*
I also watched Das Große Backen in the afternoon, which is the German version of The Great British Bake-off. Now I'm afraid I'll have to try my hand on the Opera cake somewhen.
