a decision and a wee tip

First my wee tip: Do you know that time of day when you're trying to cook dinner, have a million pots on at the same time, the kids are cross and hungry, you are cross and hungry, everyone is driving everyone mad? Well here is a wee tip passed down to me from my dear mother...
Frozen peas, yup, it's as simple as that. Give them a wee handful, or an egg cup full of frozen peas and the peace will be restored...plus it's another one of their 5 a day. Have you never tried frozen peas? Well you must and your kids will thank you for it.
All we are saying...is give peas a chance (sorry but it had to be done)

And now my decision... I have decided to get a pinny/overall/apron. Does that make me old...or just sensible? Because I am sick of looking like this....

I had this top on for less than an hour and Joa covered me with porridge and yoghurt, I am so tired of looking like a well used table cloth, so I am going to get an apron! Anyone any suggestions...anyone want to make one for me?

So we're all feeling better now, thank goodness, life is getting back to normal and I hope we will be out and about lots this week. I have been feeling slightly starved of adult company.

Look at this lovely yarn, I am still on the search for the ultimate rainbow yarn. The variation on the colour is actually going to make very wide stripes, so I can't use it, as intended for my dolls. It will make a sweet sweater though fo Joa maybe?

I also found a gorgeous, new scarf in a charity shop yesterday. Och I just can't leave hand knit things in charity shops, it breaks my heart.
It is a silk blend and just so soft and gorgeous (you're missing out person whom it was knitted for and just chucked it into the charity bag, I'm telling you!)

So I thought I'd unravel it and use it for something else, like this dolls hat.
