A nice afternoon

Thursday, August 10, 2017

My last cake is baked and in the fridge. Besides a bit of running around it took all morning. I hadn’t really planned to do anything else though so that was fine.

After lunch a friend picked me up and we headed off for our stitching afternoon. I had all my card stock pieces cut, as well as my fabric (those bits of time between oven checks were useful). Neither Gail nor Sandra had prepped their pieces so I was ahead of the game. We sewed and chatted the afternoon away; it was so enjoyable that we are going to do it again next week.

After a bit more running around and supper out I’m back in the kitchen tonight – a double batch of Cranberry Almond cookies. With four pans rather than two the baking is going very quickly, but with only seven minutes between pan shifts (bottom to top and top to bottom) I’m not going to get much else done.
