A lovely Weekend......

Had a lovely weekend. Spent Saturday just pottering around the house in an old t-shirt and jogging bottoms and no make up, bliss. Made another batch of lemon curd and a banana loaf. Put all the ingredients in the tin, then realised I'd forgotten the sugar. So had to scrape it all back out add sugar re-mix and put back in the tin. Turned out OK though. Half's gone already Hubby likes cake!
Sunday I went to meet Yarrow (from Oakmoon) , who I talk to on a forum we belong too. She kindly had a breadmaker she was giving me, so went to pick it up and spent ages nattering, tea drinking and eating cake. Also went to have a look at her field with veg patch and her lovely horses. Had a great day, and we got on really well. Already talking about a Glastonbury trip. It's always nice to make new friends, and we have mutual friends and didn't even realise it. Small World.

Got to work for three hours today, then need to go shopping and to buy a head torch for my camping trip on Friday. Loads of housework to do and lots of craft staff to sort out. Theres definitely an autumn feel in the air this morning. May need an extra quilt a camp!

Baking..

I've had many attempts at a banana loaf, and they've always been stodgy and un-appetizing. Till Now. I had another go yesterday with thanks to my ''Good Housekeeping'' cookbook and a bit of tweaking from me, it turned out lovely. It got hubby's approval and is sitting in his packed lunch today. My first step towards the money saving plan.
