How long?

We celebrate our 35th wedding anniversary today although celebration is a bit of a misnomer today.

DB is busy painting the skirting boards in the dining room as well as repairing a bit of concrete floor near the outside door. I have just cleaned the bathroom and have now settled down for a while. We rarely buy each other presents so were going to treat ourselves to meal out at our local pub. They didn't have any tables left for today so we shall do that tomorrow!

The sky is as grey as dishwater, the temperatures are currently around 11C so I certainly don't plan on doing any gardening or even putting washing on as it just won't dry - says she - wringing her hands:)

Yesterdays bread making nearly turned into a disaster. I really must type out the doubled up recipe rather than just trying to remember it. I got everything mixed in the processor but it turned into a solid lump - doh - I had forgotten to double up the liquid.

Eventually it got sorted out, rose fine and was baked but we haven't tried any yet so hopefully it will taste fine.

Still, the flowers are increasing in the garden with the little slimline irises coming into bloom:
 All is well!

  2. Many congratulations on your 35th anniversary! Husband and I will celebrate our 52nd in October and I think, as perhaps you feel on this happy occasion, that given the option, you'd do it all over again!
    Also, husband in the throes of decorating, too, so snap!
