Jump in the line!

So I know I promised everyone a couple more practical classes, and I really mean to get on with them today or tomorrow, (the etched glass is proving difficult to photograph), but this week's been taken up mostly with getting on with the garage extension.We did take a couple field walks and one down to the village...IMG_6213 copy copyIMG_6225 copy copy...and our good friend John came for a day to give a hand with the cement walls.IMG_6243 copy copyIMG_6247 copy copyChloe kept our spirits up with he brilliant videos, plus hilarity ensued here with Robert's Euro-dance music blasting out.I made this ridiculous little compilation video for you. (R says, "Oh God, don't spread it around!) :Dhttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4bf2DZ-cM5YAnd nothing more to report really.No palaces visited, no grand parks, no rivers walked past, not much art...except for a couple stepping stones (have to photograph the second one still).But I did make a delicious quiche.IMG_6244 copy copyThis one with leek, onion, red pepper, some bacon and some chorizo, garlic, herbs and salt.Simple, done in a half hour, out of the world delicious.IMG_6255 copy copyAnd, as I usually do, made a few pastries from the left-over pie crust dough. Rolled flat, brushed with butter, sprinkled with brown sugar, stuffed with apricots. Oh, such lovely sweet little treats, and made even more special since there are always only about 6 or 8 available, but so worth it.IMG_6257 copy copyAnd! Our garage extension is almost done! Almost time for the roof.IMG_6280 copy copy
