Well, it's time to get down to something crafty today.
Yesterday I spent most of the day on the sofa with the fire on reading the latest Nora Roberts book from her Boonsboro Inn trilogy. It was a bit of a slog as I've not totally enjoyed this latest series with the exception of the middle book in the trilogy.
However, it needed reading and will be returned to the library soon. :)
Today is another matter, today I need to not end up on the sofa enjoying the heat of the fire and reading yet another book that needs to be back at the library (although I am half way through the one I started this morning! Ooops).
Today, I need to get something made with this little pile of loveliness:
It includes the makings and theme for this week's 52 Cards challenge prompt. ;o)
It's been a bit of a funny week - I have worked from home all week due to the weather playing havoc with how long it would take me to get to work vs. just getting on with it at home.
I have had to ration myself to 1 hot chocolate a day or every other day:
There has been plenty of opportunity for winter warmer evening meals including my favourite comfort food - a tuna melt jacket potato:
Toad in the hole that miraculously came out very well and made for 3 nice meals:
There has been a lot of loitering by the fire in the evenings to warm the bum:
And in the mornings there has been some interesting weather - the ominous red sky indicating more snow:
Then a morning that was just fog and ice:
Followed 10 minutes by the appearance of the sun that made for an eerie sky:
Our snow is sort of melting now, but who knows what the afternoon will bring. There's still plenty of ice about! I'm just happy to say it will be a nice day spent indoors with the crafty stash, a DVD or two, a nice soak in the bath (with my book) and some good telly tonight.
Ohhhh, it definitely looks like you're making the most out of these freezing cold winter days. Your pictures remind me so much of my lovely time in England (and the view from my window =)).
