Hi jan , that is great , I admire people like you who can do craft skills ....enjoy ....needles and or pins are not just my thing ...Things do seem to be going in the right direction, My Doc gave me a tip, do something to distract yourself from Davids health problems , it will help you psychologically and give yourself something to focus on. So I have decided to pick up tapestry again. ♥ Jan
I only do tapestry I could not make a dress to save my life, I was put off sewing machines at school, an evil teacher combined with a posessed machine.Hi jan , that is great , I admire people like you who can do craft skills ....enjoy ....needles and or pins are not just my thing ...I am hopeless.

Roast med Salad, Peppers , assorted colours Onions , Tomatoes, cur all the veg into weddges and arrange them i an oven proof dish, mix together equal quantities of basamic vinegar and olive oil, small pinch of sugar, salt and pepper and dried basil. juice of half a lemon, whisk until it emulsifies and pour over the veg,, scatter with fresh basil leaves if available, cover with a tight fitting lid or kitchen foil and bake in a low oven until done (about an hour) I sometimes scatter some grated cheese on top and pop back in the oven until it melts The juices are the best bit for me. Bon Apetite forgot a couple of cloves of garlic chopped finely oops!Ooooh yes please jan if you don't mind that sounds like my sort of meal ...thank you so much ....
