Just pottering!

Haven’t done much recently - been a bit put off by Blogger! I can’t leave messages on blogs that have ‘select profile’. So if you have this sort of comment box and I normally leave a comment please please don’t think me rude. I can leave comments if the owner approves the comment first and I can leave a message in a comment box like mine.



Saturday evening meal was Paella. The recipe is the Wartime Housewife's and very nice it was too although I did not have any Turmeric.
Out of three dozen scones I made on Sunday I had one nearly perfect one which was eaten while still warm from the oven! Oh....they weren't for us! My boss Janet asked me if I would make some for the Cat Protection Cream Tea. I said I didn't mind doing it as long as someone picked them up. Think they made over £300 Sunday afternoon.

Finishing off the Button Swap I joined. My partner Delia lives near me so hopefully we are meeting up on Saturday.




And making a Rag Doll for a certain little person's second birthday in August

  1. I too am seriously considering giving up on blogging till they get the problems sorted. I can't comment on all blogs, I can't sign out of my blog so can't sing into another one (in my case Postman's Knock) the fonts keep changing when I don't ask them to and until this afternoon when a follower told me how I couldn't get the spacing right either!

    Scones look great - I'd have eaten at least one too. Love the dolly.

    i know what you mean about select profile- i now select url or annom's as it lets me comment then just dont select google or you'll just keep going round in circles.
    i hope that helps x

  5. Having tried your way of baking sponges and found it so great, I now want to know how you get those scones so high, mine never rise that big. Is there a secret recipe?
