TEASMADE
My Mum noticed ages ago that I had put a Teasmade on my Christmas wishlist and she very thoughtfully picked one up for me just after Christmas and bought it to the sausages and cider party. Now my bedsit is an extremely small space and I am an extremely messy person, so unfortunately there wasn’t […]
Links
I don’t know if it’s Spring or what, but it seems like all the blogs I subscribe to have recently been full of delicious gems that I feel I must pass on. In the style of Susie’s amazing Probably Something You Would Like posts, here are my round-ups of what I’m enjoying at the moment […]
The Sea Road
Yesterday a friend invited us to join him and some other friends on his yacht – Mouflon. I have never sailed before, but I finished reading Margaret Elphinstone’s book, The Sea Road, about a week ago and although I knew we wouldn’t be sailing anywhere near as far North as Gudrid, I was inspired by […]
WARNING: spiders!
Yesterday I had the amazing experience of talking to Dr Chris Holland of The Oxford Silk Group, for the forthcoming series of The Hub. Our series – starting on Sunday 11th April – kicks off with a special focus on Science to tie in with Science Oxford. Now ever since I first read about the […]
The LISTEN hatâ„¢
I had another look through the Sound Art To-Do-List and was gratified to see that I am (mostly) on track with various sound-related projects and jobs at the moment. The recent counting prevails with WW points, £-watch and some happy knitting maths. It turns out that a 15-stitch-wide S is not an easy thing to […]
FO: Wazz’s Woollen Winter Walking Outfit and Turn a Square pattern mashup
Two of my favourite patterns; Wazz’s Woollen Winter Walking Outfit #1 and Jared Flood’s Turn a Square pattern, mashed up into one happy hat of joy, to be given as a gift to my Grandad – who I hope does not know about my blog. If you *do* read this, Grand Pappy Wilf, Happy Birthday! […]
Generosity and Numbers
This weeks’ numbers are all about generosity. Not only have I been generous to myself with my WW points (woops!) but I have also been given many things this week that have made me think about gifts and the role that kindness plays in material sustenance. For instance Liz turned up at Sticks’n’String this week […]
Tuesday’s Numbers
I am enjoying thinking about how I can create 8-days of eating joy from my kitchen cupboard and the contents of my fridge. I think that for tomorrow’s evening meal I am going to make a lasagne using up some old sheets of lasagne, some lentils cooked with 10 calorie tomato soup sachets, and a […]
A week of Numbers…
I fell off the wagon somewhat with all my counting between last Tuesday and today. The start of the problem was the 4 pints of Guinness that I drank last Wednesday before realising each one was a whopping 3 points, and before doing my bar-tab sums. This may explain the 1 lb gain I experienced […]
