It was sooo hot yesterday I almost melted. I woke up early this morning and Joe and I took the opportunity to sit in the garden, I drinking my first coffee of the day & Joe his tea!! It was so cool then. I then had my breakfast of poached eggs on toast whilst Joe read the paper. Thank goodness it’s been a little cooler today.
Whilst it was still cool I made a Slimming World chickpea loaf ready for lunch.
My friend Pam popped in at lunchtime, it was so lovely to see her & we whiled away a couple of hours over diet cokes sat in the garden in the shade!!
Here’s a card I made several weeks ago. |
Now I’ve got the knitting bug again. I’ve not really knitted since my children were small, although I have made an Aran cardigan for Emily a few years ago now and a jumper for Cameron when he was a baby. I quite like to knit whilst TV in the evening. I decided I was going to take some knitting away with me to France this year. So prior to my holiday I went to town with Samantha to buy some wool. Samantha chose the colour as she has more of a flair for colour that I have. Below is the ‘bolero’ type cardy that I knitted for Emily. She loved it and proudly took it to nursery to show it off to her Teacher!! It as dead easy to knit and I really enjoyed doing it. I’ve started my next project so will post that when it’s completed!!!

Very pretty card and cardi Lesley. Too hot for me. I was at Shipley Park just after 6.30 this morning taking advantage of the cool, I will be in hiding the rest of the day! :o)

Hi Lesley, me again. No, two of the lakes were at Kirk Hallam and the other one was on the Ilkeston/West Hallam road. I never thought of the Sawley gravel pits, may have to go and investigate :o)
