Sunshine after the rain

[Strugglingmum]

So I'm feeling a need for positivity!!


Its grey and dismal but I made my very own flaky pastry (gf of course) from scratch today. 3 rolls, 3 folds, 3 turns. It's been a few years!! Good old school cookery lessons. It's in the fridge chilling and I hope to make sausage rolls with it later (gf of course)
I'm going for a swim, just waiting outside the leisure centre.
I also blind baked some small sweet pastry cases. I had shortcrust pastry made which needed used.

So who else has done something nice.... got up? Had a shower? Read a book? Not strangled someone?

Lol, Si’s still undamaged despite the Darth Vader comments. And I cleaned the en suite, the first time doing housework since my LP

SM can I come live with you? All that pastry sounds yummy. I can almost smell it from here.

I hope you’re not pushing too hard Paula?

What have I achieved? Well I polished the coffee table and put the stays on a headboard with I can’t fit can the fixings on the bed are missing. Doh! Now leaving the real work to the cleaners while I take me meds and snuggle with Super Sausage.

I've showered, done a tiny bit of uni work and requested an extension! Read a chapter of my book too, reading Elizabeth is Missing and it's brilliant!

I've not done much at all! I'm finishing making my Mum's Christmas present, spoke to her on the phone - 2ce, helped her not to be scammed (again), watched a couple of episodes with Hazel

Hurrah for us all. We are achievers!!

I rewarded my 90 lengths at the pool with a crisp butty!!

[Suzi]

90 lengths? How big is this pool? 5m across?

[Paula]

Love crisp butties, nom

[Allalone]

Can I join in?

Made a sticky black gingerbread to distract, had a shower and got clothes out ready for tomorrow.

Crisp butties are amazing!!

Not heard of any chufty badge awards recently??
