Today is the penultimate day of February, and it is glorious again!
The washing has been done and put outside on the line to dry. There is nothing like breeze dried linens, and it was something we dearly missed on the boat.
We walked up into town, keeping to the main road rather than walking through the park as we anticipated it being busy because people still come here for day trips.
The streets were therefore quiet, but the supermarket was a hive of activity. A lot of people were just chinning in the aisles, but at least masks are being enforced before you can enter the shops. I can’t wait to get my jab next week, even though we shall continue wearing our masks for months to come.
We got another stew pack as Hubby was able to digest that with no problems, and I made some flapjacks today too. I haven’t made any since school, and checked out a recipe on the internet. I didn’t have the quantities quoted, so guessed it with what I did have as I had to use up some margarine. They haven’t turned out too badly. Nothing like shop bought of course, but I did melt the final bar of chocolate over half of it when it came out of the oven.
On a scale of 1 to 10, I’d give my efforts a good 6.
Not much else on the agenda today. I can hear lawn mowers outside so neighbours are taking advantage of the good weather and the fact that the past few days have dried out the grass! Uh-oh…. Hubby is up and going to do the same.
Going to settle down at my blog now and respond to the 69 comments I’ve got in!
Have a good day everyone.
Take care, and keep safe.
It’s been a busy one here , don’t know where the time has gone 💜💜
It’s been productive here. The grass is cut and all the washing dry.
That’s very satisfing isn’t it 💜
Definitely. Hope it doesn’t rain tomorrow though!!!
What’s happening tomorrow 💜
It always seems to rain if we wash the car, wash the windows, or cut the grass. LOL
Right I shall be watching 💜
haha!!

Well, it’s not raining, but it has started foggy!!!
Fingers crossed. 💜💜
Oh! Love the sound of your flapjacks 💜💜
They weren’t bad, and I used maple syrup instead of golden syrup. The quantities ratios was all wrong, but they taste OK and don’t break the teeth!
Excellent 😊
Mmmm Flapjacks! With chocolate drizzle! Delicious!! I’ve been on a French toast kick lately and got some great bread to make it with, that’s for brekkie tomorrow I think! I made a vegetable lasagna (with a tiny bit of sausage as a sop to the doggie) for dinner yesterday and it didn’t turn out too bad, but was a wee bit overcooked. It was still pretty yummy, but I have loads of leftovers and so will have to cut it up and freeze some of it for another time.
Hope you had a good birthday Melanie.
The sun came out today but the air is still cold. The snow is melting but then the water freezes after sundown and we have icy patches on the roads… You must have an earlier spring there!
It’s been beautiful these past few days, but today has started a bit dodgy. saying that, the sun is battling its way through cloud and the fog is beginning to disperse.
Happy you had a good day to the grocery. Nice weather here and people are out. I see less masks outdoors but most are complying with the indoor rules.
Glad hubby is digesting the stew at least! I love flap jacks! yum! Did you enjoy them? xoxo
Flapjacks are definitely a weakness, and the ones I made didn’t last that long!
