I’ve managed to eek out about half of the first sleeve of Calluna but it’s just a moss stitch tube, boring, no pictures. I did some spinning yesterday, I had a tiny little batt of merino from Corgi Hill Farm, she sent it when I ordered the merino/silk batts, so I tried out some coils with it. There’s only maybe five or ten yards here and it’s horribly over spun but it was fun to try out.
I’ve been more in a baking mood this week. Monday I made some butterscotch oatmeal cookies, just basic oatmeal cookies with butterscotch chips, and they were so good we ate them all before I had a chance to photograph them. Then yesterday morning I was craving scones, so I made some. I used a recipe for Irish Soda Scones and they were dead simple to make, really fast, and and they taste great with some butter and a little apple butter or jelly, they’re a bit bland on their own. I got too much flour on top of mine, but it doesn’t seem to make much difference. I love scones and always forget how easy they are. These took about five minutes to mix up and twenty to bake. It actually took longer for my oven to heat up than to make the scones. Nice.
Have a great weekend!
