Outside My Window...
Thick fog, it is 8:30am and it still hasn't cleared. Up here on the range it often hang arounds for days. It feels very autumnal.

From the kitchen...
DH had a busy day yesterday baking and preserving - monte carlo biscuits (ever so rich), banana cake, chicken pot pie and quince preserve. I need to put together a pumpkin gnocchi dish for dinner tonight.

I am hearing
Radio National with a story on hospital admittance predictors, as well as Ginger laughing as she chases the dog.On my mind...
what we are going to do with the children if the weather continues like this for Ginger's birthday party. Also, how is my baby almost one!
Around the house...
laundry in the dryer rather than on the line because of the rain, bed sheets to change, floors to mop and some major weeding needed in the back garden before the party.

A Few Plans For The Rest Of The Week:
add button closures to 5 cushion covers I sewed last September which are gaping open! Also, clean out the bedroom closets (bedroom zone on flylady this week), and make bread.
