Baking and painting
I gave myself the task of painting the interior walls (all of them) back to white. I underestimated just a little how long it would take. The paint here is so thin and even painting over cream takes 3 or 4 coats! Never mind - it's looking much brighter in our little dark house and at least with white I can always keep a spare tin to paint over those mucky teeny hand prints.
And we've been baking again. Trying to steer away from biscuits, I've been making muffins - lemon ones. I just need to get them a bit more lemony. I'm thinking of just blitzing a whole lemon and have done with it...?
And, biscuits! Sam had a playdate with a friend from school, so we made a batch of biscuits.

ReplyDeleteIt has been so long since I have baked biscuits, I love the smell of them cooking in the oven.

ReplyDeleteWhat a busy day for you!!
ReplyDeleteI have found that no matter what you cover with white paint, it seems to take forever! Worth it though!
Have a great weekend Andrea!
