Making : another knitted headband, this time for me!
Cooking : puff pastry to turn the custard i made yesterday into vanilla slice
Drinking : a small glass of sav blanc
Reading: parenting for a peaceful world
Wanting: to spend way too much money on a kitchen :(
Looking: at the internet a little bit too much, i've still got work to do!
Playing: pip's game!
Wasting: hopefully not too much time!
Sewing: nothing right now ... but i'm thinking about starting a little practice quilt
Wishing: that designing my perfect kitchen wasn't such tricky business!
Enjoying: watching ponyo!
Waiting: for my new summer sandals to arrive in my letterbox
Liking: how clever i feel for almost figuring out how to make my vanilla slice as wonderful as the ones from the french pastry stall at the farmers market
Wondering: how to make my egg custard for the vanilla slice less lumpy, do i really need to strain it like stephanie alexander says?
Loving: how the sun stays up a little bit longer every day at this time of year!
Hoping: that there isn't too much more house stuff to do before it starts being built
Marvelling:at the funny radish sounds snoring next to me on the couch.
Needing: not much that i don't already have...
Smelling: more jonquils... oops! they where super cheap and smelled sooo lovely!
Wearing: a red babushka dolls brooch and bright red shoes
Following: inhabit, so many clever eco ideas
Noticing: my aloe vera's flower stem is about to burst into bloom
Knowing: that i haven't been walking up hills enough recently
Thinking: that eating 2 1/2 white chocolate mud cup cakes over the last two days was probably 2 1/2 too many ... but they where very tasty! thank you kerry!
Bookmarking:belly dancing tutorials on you tube, it's pretty tricky to remember the moves between classes you know!
Feeling: toasty warm at home

Opening: up the patterns pocket in my new meet me at mikes book... so much prettiness!
Giggling: at ben saying silly things Feeling: toasty warm at home
some of the offending white chocolate mud cupcakes
I do not say silly things! I offer high protein truth nuggets!
ReplyDeletehoompf!
I think I'll play along with this as well (sometime in the next few days anyway) The Meet me at Mikes book has some really lovely things to make in it doesn't it?
ReplyDeleteHi Katrine. Noticed that you've just become a follower of my blog. Thanks! I love your tag line about being a lurker, but not anymore. I'm sure it applies to most of us!
ReplyDeleteMe again Katrine. About that custard for the vanilla slice - I'd stick the bamix in it to get rid of your lumps. I do it with all my sauces and gravies that don't behave the way I want them to.
ReplyDeletepip - your list was great!
ReplyDeletemissyP - thanks for the custard advice!i tried a beater to get rid of the lumps but a barmix would do a better job wouldn't it?! i'll have to give the barmix a whirl next time :)
Hi Katrine,
ReplyDeleteIt's very nice to meet you at Gnomes's place today. I found we have many interests in common.
Hope to see you again!
