Today has been a profitable day!

Tomorrow is our turn on morning tea at church so I have been baking. Here's a couple of shots of some of the biscuits. I also have a caramel shortcake made and will do a loaf of bread into asparagus rolls. Then because I am so very kind and irresponsible ( ha ha) I will take jelly beans and marshmallows for the children - their mothers will just have to make sure they clean their teeth properly!!

But it hasn't been all cooking - I finished off page one of the Anne Book. This is such fun - have you read the book? At B I remembered Anne's imaginative and totally false confession to Marilla in order to ensure that her punishment for the loss of the amethyst brooch didn't cause Matthew any more heartache. At C I laughed aloud thinking of the 'cordial incident" and Marilla's horror at the resulting drunkenness. Then of course D had to be for Diana her bosom friend! Oh my I am really really enjoying this stitch and almost regretting having given my copy of the book to my nieces some years ago as I feel I'd like to read it again. Still perhaps they love it as much as I.

I am now on G which of course is .... yes! Green Gables - but no photo of that page yet.

I finished off two exchanges and packed a surprise birthday gift which will fly away over the seas on Monday. But no photos of those either - wouldn't want to spoil the surprise.
