Fully recovered from a cold, I’ve had a good week and it has been surprisingly warm. The leaves have dropped and we can definitely see signs of Autumn now. Woohoo!
1. I made another quiche at the start of the week and I had a hole somewhere in my pastry…this was the aftermath!

As Sunday Sevens posts go, my post this week is a bit of a fail. Firstly, I’m posting on Monday and secondly, I only have 5 photos! I was fighting a cold last week so I spent 3 days sat on the sofa feeling sorry for myself. 😦 Much better now though 🙂
1. We haven’t eaten Yorkshire Puddings for a while so I made us a Toad In The Hole 🙂

Even though I was quite late in posting my goals for August, I feel like I made great progress with them and met the majority.
I have really started to make use of the planner I purchased – I’m even starting to decorate it and personalise it more for me.

Woohoo!  I managed to bake a Victoria sponge – a full cake though not cupcakes – it was gorgeous but I didn’t get a picture. 😦
Poor little Westie cross-stitch hasn’t got any fluffier – I will get it done one day! Honest!
I managed to get all 3 of the below done…even if they did overlap into August. Â I didn’t get round to even tracing the pattern for the pedal pushers so I think I’m now going to push them to September.

Do you ever have one of those weeks where you look back and realise that you haven’t really done much? Yep I’ve had one of those weeks! I haven’t managed any sewing this week and probably won’t until later into this week too! I had a couple of ‘lazy’ days on the sofa too so didn’t photograph those! Ha!
1. We went for our morning walk over in Fairhope. I also took photos of a recent make…here’s a preview!
