Late night baking and making

Went to the first weekend Farmer's market of the year this morning...got some goodies!  Lots of asparagus!

Here are photos of the rug that I'm stitching.  As you can see, I had to rip out most of it...due to No preplanning.  haha... I thought I could just make up a pattern as I stitched along...NO, can't do that with circles on a square backing.  Rip/stitch/repeat!!!

Such a blurry photo...argh!  But you get the idea...

Brown wool backing...colors look faded here...much more vibrant in real life!

So, Rich is working on sanding the wood floors in the dinning/living room.  Poor Mattie is terrified of the power tools and is staying as far away as possible...way back in the yard.

Me, I'm going to stitch some more! 

Cheers ✄

Tired...and not wanting to complain.

All last week I listened to "Oscar Wilde: His Life and Confessions" by Frank Harris via Librivox podcast. All 29 Chapters! It was an engrossing listen due to the reader's skill. And the story line...a biography of sorts.

Besides that...have been sewing. Having not found my sewing machine, I am in the process of hand sewing some curtains for the kitchen. It is slow going. The valances are lined.

We picked up some veggies and some ripe (fresh picked by us!) tomatoes yesterday. So my job is to make up some pizza dough now and we will have us a killer dinner tonight.

I know this is all boring and domestic...just kind of tired and blah....sorry....some wine may help! Or vodka...what else? A big hug from my beloved..

We (I) found the camera...and have a day off tomorrow! Joy...freedom...
