We have had a great weekend, apart from my little incident yesterday which is still a source of great hilarity, and we also did quite a lot of cooking. Yesterday I showed Eden how to make a cous-cous salad and in the afternoon we made a wholemeal loaf and then a delicious cheese and onion quiche which we had for dinner last night with some salad.
Today it was the meat loaf so Eden will be able to make this at home and I have also told Sarah how to make it too because it is so easy and very tasty.
Eden's domestic skills are very good for her age and below is a picture of a cushion that she recently made for me.
She did the tie-dye on the fabric and then designed and made the robin from felt which she sewed on herself. I think it is excellent and I have promised her that I will show her how to use my sewing machine properly when she stays with me for a week in August. Perhaps we will start by making a simple top for her.
Hi Grandma!
ReplyDeleteI'm so happy to hear the meatloaf was a hit. Yay!
Sounds like you two had a busy weekend indeed but a yummy one too.
Eden's pillow is really pretty! She has a great eye for color. I couldn't help but smile when I looked at it. Those are the kinds of things I like to surround myself with. Things that make me feel good by just looking at them.
I'm looking forward to reading about your August adventures with Eden too.
