A day of doings

Feeling much better Saturday, I did a series of sit to stands then went to the pond to watch ducks and foliage. 

Home again I picked yet another bunch of flowers 

And I came through on my plan to make oatmeal wraps.

Flax seed, so pretty. I ground some with the oats to make the flour for the wraps

Some roast chicken diced, dash of Worcestershire to liven it up, fresh spinach 

The first wrap had a lacy edge, but it was okay in the end. The recipe made four wraps so I made all of them, two for tomorrow.

Here's two wraps for lunch, sharp cheddar cheese spread then chicken and spinach rolled up and they worked well. You do have to have the pan very hot and you need to give them four minutes at least on the first side, then two on the second.

Pro tip: if your oven's old like mine and the electronic ignition doesn't,  rest a spoon bowl down. Then let go, and switch on. It directs the spark to the gas.

Like here, then take away the spoon before it gets hot and you're, um, cooking with gas. No idea how I figured this out.

Then I needed to sort the artist statement. They wanted it personal, friendly, all that so I picked an old not so good painting to use as the background to write on 

And cut it to the size of a protective sleeve, then wrote my stuff 

Done. Now I can take everything in tomorrow and be done.

Gary's home, has been for a few days, back to calling from the store for advice, this time what are sweet peppers, are they sweet, or what. I explained just not spicy. He can't do spicy, so he needed to know.

Happy day everyone, when you don't know something, call and ask. A real friend won't think it's a dumb question. But she might point and laugh in her blog..no, she'll be nice. 

Here's some accidental art, sun shining through red glass lamp base and other shadows making an interesting composition, dividing the space nicely.
