It was my First Blogoversary on 30th March and I missed it ... BUT I am having a belated celebration by offering a little stitched something. I will ask Philly to pick a winner out of a hat on Good Friday, please let me know in your comment if you would like to be entered - good luck.
I lost another 1.5 pounds this week making 9lbs in just 5 weeks - how cool is that. I was amazed as we had quite a weekend away as you can see from my previous blog - I was quite good with food just don't ask about the wine LOL. I am not going to Slimming World for two weeks now as we are going to the caravan on Easter Sunday for a week. At least I am still cooking for myself unless I give in to the delicious fish and chips, pizza at our Welsh local and the Halo honey ice-cream; makes my mouth water just writing it.
I have finished my next flower on the Perennial Garden, this time it's aster. Only 3 flowers to go and then I can think about getting it framed. I am so glad I joined JA UFO Night as I know I would have been thinking "I have plenty of time, it's not until September" and then had to rush it. I do have another UFO (and this time it really is a UFO) waiting in the wings so even more reason to finish the garden.
Philly and I are off to Nottingham on the train today to visit my stitching friend Melanie and her gorgeous baby Elizabeth. We quite enjoy these days out as the train journey isn't too long, Philly loves the shops and of course we get to cuddle Elizabeth and chat with Mel. I could do with a summer weight jacket and maybe some casual tops so I will also be shopping - all in a smaller size too.
Much as I like my job I love the hols more LOL. Have a good break for those who are also off :)

I wish you great Easter holidays. And you are right - no matter how much you love your work, holidays are usually the best way of spending your days. Particularly with such a wonderful hobby as ours.
