Bloggy Love

I've just received my first award – thank you Cathy from The Clothesline (makes you sound like a laundry item!) In order to justify this award I must reveal ten things about myself. So here we go folks – hold onto your hats!

1: Eggs and mushrooms disagree with me though I used to be able to eat them . . . sigh!

2: My piano is gathering dust as I haven't played it for months.

3: Barry has gone sailing so I've had the entire day to myself.

4: The smell of coffee is wonderful but I can't stand the taste.

5: I've got shallots in the fridge and really should have pickled them by now.

6: I'm always fidgeting with my rings and lost one in the car last Saturday – Barry retrieved it for me today.

7: I'm a better listener than conversationalist.

8: I can't make pastry – it turns out like cardboard. Pound cakes become ton cakes in my hands too.

9: There are at least three unfinished craft projects patiently awaiting my attention. Two of them were started in 2000 . . . blush . . .

10: For more than thirty years I was a teacher, trying to inspire educate 3 to 11-year-olds.

Now, wasn't that enthralling?

I'm passing the award on to Life With Dogs, Anya, nonizamboni and Marie Reed. You just need to award it to four other bloggers to pass on the bloggy love.
