Back to Time
Were it not for Covid-19, I would have tickets in my hands. Train tickets, plane tickets, movie tickets, opera tickets, concert tickets, hell, even a bus ticket sounds like fun.
With extra time on my hands I seem to be reverting to the hobbies and crafts I did when I was young. Young as in before careers and mortgages and dinner parties. Back to when most people would say ‘BC’ — before children. Back to when time was something you mulled over how to spend… Oh, what to do, what to do…
I have resurrected and repaired my sewing machine, thanks to YouTube and Wikipedia. I am refurbishing furniture pieces that have been staring balefully at me for years begging me to do something about their missing veneer.
Remember macramé? It’s back in style and I brought with me some choice sticks from my previous back yard. I just need the string.
Please stop me before I tie dye a bedspread.
In the meantime, tying knots and fiddling about with wood filler is therapy. What are you making these days?
Stay safe everyone.
Today I am making roasted pickled beets cause they are a big part of our Ukranian Christmas feast which may not happen as a group this year but in 3 separate cities. It gives me joy to share this yummy treat …cause I like cooking for the ones I 💘
Hugs to you Crafty Girl💫
