Guess what came in the mail today? July's Rockin' Sock Club package and it's such a good one. Ready for some coloured goodness? Read on ...

 

... I picked a bowl of fresh sugar snap peas and sunberries. The peas were for my lunch. The sunberries are for the freezer.

... I checked on my ripening tomatoes.

... I plan to do a little more spinning.

... I'm going to try on and rip back the sock I've been working on.

... Abby and I will go adventuring for smooth rocks.

... I'm going to start cutting for a new quilt top.

... I'll contemplate reworking the section of sock I've just ripped out but will probably put it off until tomorrow.

... I should really put in a load of laundry.

... I might try making pasta from scratch.

What are you up to?

Yesterday, in between a slow morning and a lazy evening, we walk down to Old Town for the annual Ramble and Ride. Old Town is a nice walk from our house and I like events where we can take Abby along. We were a little unsure about the weather when we set off. There was a cool breeze and grey clouds passing overhead but when the sun hit you it felt hot. We took a chance and went without jackets, something I was very happy about when we were walking back and not having to carry them.

I've got stuff to post and things to do but with a whole extra day of weekend ahead of me I'm putting it all off.

This is one of the sunflowers in my sister's garden. It's taller than either Jane or I and has a huge scary looking spiky bud on it (is it still called a bud when it's bigger than your fist?). There are four or five of these flowers along the inside of the fence that faces the road. I cant wait to see them bloom.
