Monday doings

​having been ill last week and then riding through the fibromyalgia fog

I actually felt like I could achieve something today 


The squares all laid down. I need a dozen more and then, the sewing begins 

The day was lovely. It kinda felt like spring was on its way. 

Although, living in Melbourne you “know” we can get all four 

Seasons in one day. 

Regardless, I went out to see what I could harvest for my dinner 


Silver beet and eggs when into a spinach pie. 

I have seven chickens and I collected seven eggs. 

The girls are back in action. 


I kept some of the silver beet to cook with the broccoli. 

I say cook but I literally get the water to boiling and then turn it 

Off.

I will add a vinaigrette dressing and I’ll have this for lunch. 


I finally harvested some of the rhubarb.   I finally got round to 

Making the Apple and rhubarb pie. 


I cooked up the rhubarb with some sugar, before I mixed it with the apple for 

The filling  

I even had enough to freeze for latter use  

This took all day as I was very slow.

 It was ready for dinner so it didn’t Matter   

I’m now in my pjs, working on the last dozen squares  

Hopefully I’ll be able to go to bed at a decent time and sleep all night  

We will see

  1. Would you consider crocheting them together - so much faster but does intro another colour (like grout round tiles) - I just alternate double crochet from one to the other, into every second stitch of the square. You are good enough at crochet to work it out. You can do whole rows of squares in no time then work crossways across all the rows joined together lengthways.

    1. I have used that method on another blanket. But, as I’ve sown the other blankets together I’ll stick to it. That way they will kinda all look alike
