Tudor Tuesday

Today I Didn't:

Build a wattle fence (although if it were as pretty outside right now as it is in this picture, I would have),

Spin yarn,

 Paint beautiful pictures for a children's book,

Weave a basket (although I did weave pretties into the girl's hair),

Or go outside to enjoy the snow (heaven's no).

 But Today I Did:

Enjoy a little baking and 

 Finished up some stitching.

This morning I made Coffee Cake for my breakfast.  But, it was more like brunch by the time it was done.  I think Tasha would have stared wide eyed and in bewilderment at me making her Coffee Cake.  What a disaster.  "How hard could this be"?  She might have asked.  Well.......she proabaly wouldn't have cursed at the bundt pan either.  There is a good reason I didn't end up using one today.  It turned out really yummy though and that made up for lack of presentation.  A delicious cake for breakfast...all for me.  Hee hee....  Ok, I made two others for the rest of the family. 
(She always used the original spelling for recipe)


Hope you had wonderful and blessed Tudor Tuesday.

Oh my. I had a chuckle when I saw the wattle fence because just the other day I saw a truck pulling trailer loaded with tree cuttings that would be perfect for a wattle fence. Hubby said why would they be hauling them? Of course I shared about Tasha & her wattle fence. So glad you are still blogging. It's like visiting an old friend. I guess we have known each other in our blogs for some time know. Blessings! Lara
