Time spent with friends is time well spent...

I had a really lovely afternoon with Grace of oldpolicehouse blogspot fame, and the lovely Mrs Martin. I took along some Bakewell Tart in a tin given to me by Number One Son. I couldn’t resist taking a photo of the tart on a much loved plate bought in an antiques shop in Waltham Chase many years ago. Mary brought cupcakes and Grace made the strongest best coffee and had the Plain Chocolate Digestives ready. These are clearly not of this world as they are far too nice! We chatted and knitted and sewed, but I made far too many mistakes with my little knitted purse as I was completely wired with all that caffeine and sugar...

 And this is what i should have been doing....

Welcome to my ironing pile - it can always wait!
