I had one of my favourite breakfasts this morning.
Pain au chocolat. Mmmm.
The table cloth is a hand embroidered one I inherited from my grandmother (it needs an iron but I hate ironing).
Top 5 breakfasts (in no particular order):
1. pain au chocolat (or croissants)
2. american pancakes with bacon or pancetta and maple syrup
3. eggs benedict
4. Rachel's organic coconut yoghurt with homemade granola
5. peanut butter on toast
I've never lived anywhere with enough room to allow me not to have to pack away my sewing machine after each use. Until now ... The spare room is taken up with a sofa bed and my other half's significant vinyl collection and computers. I have a corner of our bedroom and it still feels like a luxury. As you can see it's a tight squeeze but I'm not complaining, well at least not that often!
The bunting marathon is still underway. I'm boring myself even talking about it. If you want to know what an insurmountable task looks like then visualise about 500 fabric triangles. And D day is 2 weeks tomorrow! It still feels surreal, like I've managed to convince myself that I won't be freaked out by approximately 100 people staring at me. Hmmm.
Time for another list, my current top 5 biscuits. Yes, I really do think about these things.
dark chocolate Leibniz, Tunnocks tea cakes, Tunnocks caramel wafers, dark chocolate gingers and shortbread.
Hopefully in my next post I'll be able to show you a picture of completed bunting rather than moaning about making it.
