Good stuff here.
Good things right now:
*Countdown to ski trip now into teeny, tiny single digits.
*Ready to add sleeves to Ashley’s baby cardi (may finish while she is still a baby!)
*Sainsbury’s have actually responded to my note in their drop box with organic flour. It makes me so happy that I can now make completely organic, albeit entirely overpriced, baked goods in my wee little kitchen.
*Stranger Than Fiction is out on DVD in England now. Borders only had two copies yesterday. Now they have none.
*Yes, I went to Borders twice in two days.
*Yes, I babysit my favourite things to see if anyone else is buying them. Who are you other local person who was waiting to pounce on this DVD and found it, hidden out of alphabetical order and not in new releases?
*Finding this website which means yes, once can actually send flours. (I have hinted. He so isn’t getting it.)
*Remembering childhood toys and fashions with girls thinking about maybe growing up.
*Making Alicia’s bread recipe, which is delightful and just sweet enough to go with spicy food.
*Like the root vegetable curry in my new cookbook. (I can’t complain. That one I didn’t even hint about. Bless.)
*Inside info from he who went on a curry cookery course last week.
*Thinking that Alicia’s bread recipe made with cornmeal flour could possibly go so well with chilli.
*But instead just having coffee and blueberries for dinner tonight.
*Having nearly finished this month’s book club book, I brought home this to read on the plane. Because they didn’t have this, which will probably take me most of the next century to read anyway.
*You adding a good thing from your day to the comments.

The quilt on my design wall is growing – slowly – but it’s growing. And I think it’s going to be fab.
