Salt cave report and some picspam
Feb. 15th, 2019 06:38 pmSo, I finally managed to make my first trip to the salt cave. It is actually a simple room, with its walls lined with pieces of rock and Himalaya salt being evaporated in it. It was quite pleasant, and I believe that given enough time my airways will be freed up a little more. *fingers crossed*
After that, our choir leader paid us a visit (she loves Mum, and the feeling is entirely mutual), and we ate my disastrous Hefezopf; the one with way too much apricot jam and almond cream filling:

Well we didn't eat it all. That would have been too much, even for three people. If I ever make a filled Hefezopf again, I'll have to either make only half the filling (which would be technically compicated, seeing as I made the almond cream using a single egg white), or a double-sized bread.
Oh, and I've made two more pencil holders out of recycled tin cans. Or candy boxes. Or whatever the recipients decided to use them for. Here they are. I used corrugated paper, leftover felt and lace, a piece of leftover ribbon and one ready-made felt sticker to make them.
