We’ve all survived, hopefully all a little wiser. Three things I’ve learned this week:
1. You can’t beat the support you get in blogland. Thank you to all for your reassurance and good advice. My favourite explanation for teen boys’ behaviour is that testosterone is a neurotoxin and that their brains are swimming in it.
2. I use extreme stress as an opportunity to eat things that normally never pass my lips – popcorn, chocolate, tuxedo cake, and the best? Cobbs lemon tarts. You Aussies and Vancouverites know what I’m talking about.
3. You know what they say about having a child later in life will keep you young? They lie.
I’m looking forward to a promising Saturday with Blogless Marsha in Edgemont Village. What’s on the agenda? A half spa day and visits to Urban Yarns and Cobbs. I’m not done with those lemon tarts.
Here’s the FO photo I didn’t get to post, the narrow version of Midwest Moonlight. I need advice – how do you get cotton to stay flat post bocking? I’ve even ironed it. Starch, maybe? I’m wondering if it’s because I tried to block it with straight edges when it’s supposed to have points along the way.
