April begins...

Good evening everyone - what a lovely Spring day it has been, a lovely way to welcome in the month of April...

No showers to report here, although it seemed more like Autumn early this morning, very damp and misty.  But the sun soon burned all the dampness away, leaving us with blue skies and fluffy blue clouds.

So here we are, week 13 of the Crochet Blanket Challenge - these four squares have been completed and added to the collection...

This is still proving to be a happy project, something that can be picked up and put down, carried around, little moments of crochet often snatched in the 10 minutes waiting for dinner to cook.  Ideal for my often frantic schedule.

I thought I would leave you with a photo of the cake my Darling Daughter made for me for Mothers Day, none left now of course...

Hope you are enjoying these early Spring days!

52 weeks of happy 4/52

Hi everyone - great to be back!!  Sorry I havent been around for a while!

Something thats really making me happy this week is that my laptop is back from being repaired - I was so lost without it.  Luckily, when DH bought it for my birthday last year he took out cover for it, so it is all back to normal!  Very impressed with the service from Currys I have to say.

So Im very happy!

And of course the snow has been another thing making me happy - I could go on and on and on about the magical beauty of the snow, the fun we have had playing in it etc - but I will keep that for another day.  This is one of my favourite photos taken this past week

This is a 17th century cottage, built by a man who was escaping the Plague in London.  A gory tale, but a very idyllic scene.

Have a great weekend - yet more snow forecast!
