Not much to report so far, was up half the night with agonising toothache :(

I did make it to church, and after that up to the local shops for baking supplies. The boy is off for a couple of days trying to get our car sorted out, so am going to take this opportunity to make him some sweet treats for valentine's day. I shall soon get started on some oreo fudge and chocolate rum truffles. I also have some black bananas which shall be turned into bread. I may  go crazy and make some chocolate cornflake cake also.

plus I now have the wool I need to (finally) finish the blanket I've been making for my friend since september. I may break out the ironing board at some point too. Got to keep myself out of mischief.

I confess, I'm shirking my 6 nations duty, though supporting the good old Eccose in spirit. I have to make the most the boy not being here to get this stuff made. he should be back before I finish work tuesday, so I only have today and tomorrow eve. Have made th fudge and done the first stage of the truffles, just gottoleave them to cool bfore shaping and dusting them.

am also hoping to convince a mutual friend to give me a lift to B&Q tomorrow eve to pick up some paint and see if i can get the bathroom painted before he gets back also. this is part valentines surprise, part because of my friends coming to stay next weekend for my birthday.

busy busy busy! if i sit still too long there's a chance I may start to miss him. pathetic isn't it? 

Thank ye Mutley!

My concerns mostly go the other way tbh D, I wonder what on earth I did to deserve a boy as lovely as he is, and keep my fingers crossed that the karma auditors don't notice that i'm living beyond my means!

It was attempting to snow- and occasionally succeeding- here today , all day long. Hot baked potatoes and roasted veg for us tonight! I have a sudden yearning for saveloys. Has anyone seen a saveloy lately? Can't remember the last time I came across one. Last costume made, just hats to trim. Fingers too chilly for sewing this evening.
