love2knit4meboys 18 Report post Posted April 3, 2016 Mornng Oh wow Eliza I would love to be as talented as you! Love the sound of your day! I have a friends wedding in June Where I am a bridesmaid! I also need to lose weight: but stones in my case I haven't even looked for my bridemaids dress Thanks for your congrats Well I've been up early and have put a SW pulled pork on in the slow cooker for 8-10 hours, so hoping it comes out well. The boys, OH and I are off out to Knebworth house for the day so will be making pack lunches after my morning brew. I'm also going to be naughty and start a whole new knitting project, to get me back into the knitting mojo. I only have 2 WIP's so not too bad Well I hope all have a lovely day Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Su2ie 116 Report post Posted April 3, 2016 Was going to say morning but its afternoon already! Good to see you back Fi Sounds like you have a very busy day - enjoy Knebworth. Eliza you sound like you're bursting with craftiness!!! You go girl! Busy morning here as usual although Ellie is off out with one of her nans. Alex is here decorating a cardboard tube with foil from Easter eggs. I managed to do some crochet on Friday! Yesterday I took the girls out and met up with one of their brothers and we mooched around town together. Bumped into my sister too then popped in to see nan & granddad so we had a great family day. Today I'm doing a roast lunch so back in the kitchen for me in a moment to peel spuds. I've got the urge to try out Tunisian crochet later as I got a free hook a few weeks ago and it would be a shame not to use it Will see how the day goes. Have a great, crafty, happy Sunday everyone x Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
