Progress

I did get more of my rug done. I have chosen a black background.

Because I wanted some mottling I threw the black wool in a pot with some tide and let it bleed some color. Then I transferred to another pan put in some vinegar to set it.

I had a pan of black dye left so I pulled some wool I might not use as it.

And threw it in the pot and let it go. Good results!

And this is my wool before and after. Next time I might scrunch it up with elastics to get a more even mottle.

We had a beautiful day today so after a walk I pulled out the cleaning supplies and attacked the porch. I had to get all the winter dust and dirt off but oh I am so happy to see it come to life!

And a bunny on the door step voila ready for warm weather!

I finally baked something I am proud of! I have had a tough time baking. I do ok but not to what I usually do. These a Japanese milk bread rolls. 

Sooooo good. And because of the process of how they are made.  they stay nice and soft. 

Fish was hard to find this week, but I was able to get some scallops.

I wrapped them in bacon voila yummy appetizers.  

Not much of a picture but our peas went in today.

It makes me hopeful, I am not much of gardener but I usually do some tomatoes, cukes, and basil so I thought we would branch out a bit.

That is my week of making progress.

My sweet B was sad that school has been canceled for the rest of the year. On line only. this is when being an only child can be hard.

But gramie and Pepe to the rescue I found a local book store that was doing orders I ordered a couple of Lego sets and had them sent to her.They arrived the next day! Sadly she had one of them but she had a big smile and was doing the other one. I promised once this is over we will make a trip to that store and she can exchange it for what ever she wants!
