Good at procrastinating
I've not done any sewing for a while and I've never done the thing of shortening jeans and putting the original hems back on so I'm quite pleased with how it worked out. And only a few swear words!
Brand new jeans bought for £2.50 in a charity shop can now be worn.

I'm very glad there's a bench almost at the top of our hill that I can perch on for 10 minutes before the hard steep bit to our house.
And it's a nice day today too.

I haven't done a jigsaw puzzle in a while but I spotted this beauty on Vinted for a few quid, brand new so now it's mine! Love a bit of Mucha.

Before and after. Mr B has worked so hard this weekend to update our hallway. I'm really pleased with the colour which gives it a bit more oomph.

I have this watercolour of a tin of syrup up in my kitchen that I actually got from someone I followed on X. Similar vibe. Quirky. I love it too.

Plum and pears from the garden transformed into #GlutenFree crumble and served with custard.
If I do say so myself - yum!
Even DD approved!

We went out to a pub that we've not been to before with our friends which was almost exactly half way between our house and theirs.
Great food.
This was my dessert - totally #GF and totally delicious!

How can this young person be 33 today?
Happy birthday to our DS.

It seems that I remembered how to cater.
We had plenty of food and all our guests went back for second helpings.

I treated myself to some new perfume. It was made by @joannechocolat.bsky.social with this perfume company to represent the main protagonist of her Chocolat series of books Vianne. It smells amazing!

still not quite used to waking up to this. I actually like laying in my bed with a cuppa now.

We had a trip out to Sissinghurst yesterday and it was delightful. So many different flowers - and the aromas!

39 years ago on a rainy day a tall skinny redhead married a girl in a homemade dress.
And they still mostly like each other

Mr B is working like a trooper to get the bedroom decorated. It's tricky because the furniture has to be moved around.
Two walls done, two to do!

A nice treat in the post on a Friday. Gorgeous variety of flavoured meringue bars. And I got them on a special offer too! Result!
Hopefully they'll last me a while.

They're green 💚
They smell amazing!
