Remembering those who died in war in the hope that we would have peace.
Quiet day, cool and rainy, great for the flower seeds.
I overcame my phonophobia, to call Gary this morning and got great news. They've been able to disconnect the machinery, he's breathing well, feeling much better, voice stronger and more cheerful.
He's hoping to get out soon. Meanwhile an out of state cousin arrived at the weekend to hold the fort at home. So all's much better on that front.
And here's what happened to the linen and cotton napkins from Florida, thank you Ms Moon.
Lovely piece of linen I'd dyed and stamped for a possible skirt, just temporarily in place in the upstairs bathroom cabinet doorway. Narrator: temporarily? Several years.
And here's the new hanging
Three napkins strung on the rod no stitching required. The rod slid easily through the hem.
Likewise downstairs, the other three napkins replacing a plain white piece of linen, which you see on the floor.
So this easy fix has freed up two pieces of good linen for other uses. I'm beyond pleased.
I used the rest of the sweet potatoes to make a sweet potato walnut bread.
Same old recipe for banana bread but mashed sweet potato instead. Very nutritious cake. Yes.
I thought a rainy holiday might be good for a bit of Freecycle, so I'm offering these magazine holder things.
The two remaining on the shelf are in use, and they show how the holders work.
Happy day, everyone, indoors keeping dry, or outside, with an umbrella, trying to fire up the grill.
