Stitchery... Goats and a Cake...
This lovely little tea cup I am doing with a group of friends... I think we are doing nice teacups altogether and I am going to make a table topper for my Mum for Christmas... OMG I am thinking that far ahead already and it is February......... scary.......... I had been saving that fabric for so long for what reason I have no idea... it really is a beautiful fabric...
Yesterday I needed to make something for lunch and thought while the oven was on and there is plenty of room in there I would bake a cake... and I have been truly avoiding putting the oven on in this weather... yes as you can see i did sample the cake... It is an apple cake of sorts made with sour cream which gives it a light fluffy texture... topped with apple, cinnamon and sugar... very nice.... yes there is still some left today........

I even subscribed to the magazine so I wouldn't miss out on a single magazine with the blocks haha... and I think this months is in the mail... tomorrow is town day can't wait to see the two new blocks...
208 goats all loaded up on Saturday... all up we trapped 557 goats and they left here on a road train (truck) yesterday afternoon.... phew and I glad to... until next time hahaha... but hey good money they bring in.....
Luv T xxxx
