Taking a break

Time to weave in the ends ready for the latest round.

And why not enjoy a quiet cup of coffee while doing so?

The squares alway look neat once the ends disappear. (This May look odd but that’s my photo not the square).

And there’s just time to crochet the final round before while the cup is still hot.

Time to pause…

The busyness of Christmas and New Year is past and it’s time to stop and take stock.

So that’s what I am doing.

With a cup of coffee, of course 😉

Is life all about coffee?

The answer,of course, is ‘No’, but it’s sometimes a great incentive!

Today’s cup went down quickly. Smooth and mild. This one is new to me.

One cup of black coffee….

….. may LOOK like any other cup of black coffee ……. but trust me! They don’t all TASTE the same!Today’s coffee is Mzuzu from Malawi. Delicious. Perfect for a quiet few minutes with my crochet!

Writing a shopping list is not my most favourite way of spending time, but this one isn’t for me.

While I wrote it I put a few more loops into the Spirit of Spring blanket which has so far remained a secret.

Just what would hubby like to prepare for himself this weekend? I won’t need anything as I’m away with daughter and granddaughter! Just the three of us for a few laughs and giggles.

While I continue to think about it I’ll just drink my new to me coffee!
