A this and that day

 I did some chores and washing this morning. I went to the shop a couple of times as I forgot something, nothing unusual there! I called round to see Sher as I wanted some of the special compost to repot the ‘Mother in laws tongue’ and remove the babies. That proved rather more difficult than expected as the ‘babies’ had warped the pot so a major mess getting the plant out. There were more than the two visible new plants so I hope they will all survive after my manhandling!

Yesterday I had cut a large round cake board in half so that I could put the two large sections of cake on them but still had them in a large cake container which I really needed. Today I remembered I had emptied  some oblong storage boxes which I though would be ideal. The halves were too big so I cut them down and not they fit. Didn’t cut myself, but did squash my finger while closing a window!
Will probably go onto Hull tomorrow.

  1. I have to take a list when I go shopping or I have no chance of getting everything I need!
    You’ll be overrun with mother in laws tongue soon by the looks of it.
    Ingenuity is your middle name. You’ve always been good at problem solving. You see uses for things when other people don’t. Like I mentioned before just wrap my cake in foil or clingfilm as. I have a cake container here which I forgot to get back to you.
    Hull sounds a good idea tomorrow. Hopefully it’ll stay dry for you.

  2. Fingers crossed that the babies grow and aren’t traumatised by the brutal handling to get them out of the flowerpot!
    I was pleased I thought about those storage boxes, they are just right.
    Haven’t been into Hull for a while, fingers crossed it is dry!
