WOYWW last of 2022

 Morning all, hope everyone had as good a christmas as possible? Ours was a quiet one but lovely to spend time with hubby and no work. Christmas day was a wet day so stayed in most of the day unlike boxing day when it was dry and sunny so we popped to our nearest town and watched the local Mummers do a street play that has been performed in the town for 200 years! 


Was brilliant to watch and the audience participation was good too! 

So onto my desk. Thought it would be a perfect opportunity to crack on with my journals so i have gesso'd my 365 journal and i will add colour later. I also finished my bullet journal pages for january so i will be ready for the start of the month! Most unusual!! 


My 'man bites dog' headline this week is 'crazy judge snubs last lover'!! 

So, what's on your workdesk this Wednesday?

WOYWW

 Ah, not much to show on this week's What's on Your Workdesk Wednesday.  Desk has no crafting, mainly as its been SO cold (snow this week) so after work I have been tucked under my electric blanket on the sofa annoying hubby by grabbing the TV controller :-)


I have however turned on my little led lights I keep round the desk (well it's almost Christmas) and I plan on making something with my painted backing cards I used up my old paint tubes on the other week, when i say plan, i don't have one, but I am sure something will come to mind once I start!

Remembered my "man bites dog" cards this week and loving this weeks headline "Blonde Exec Weds Model Nurse!" - nice :-)

So, What's on your workdesk this wednesday?

Woyww

Happy WOYWW, going to start with an apology as didnt make it round all the returns as the week just ran away. No excuse apart from work, allotment and trying to catch up on housework, yuk! 

Did manage to grab a quick 1hr at my desk though (forgot my MBD headline cards sorry) and used some offcuts to make a couple of cards for the stash.

And then i cooked! Made our Christmas cake! Every year i make the same cake, it takes 3 ingredients (flour, dried fruit and a liquid-i usually use oat milk with a little cocoa and coffee mixed in). Thats it! I also add some mixed spice and top with pecans. Now, every year i make the same mistake, i forget the handwritten recipe in my book makes 2!! Yep, been making it each year for years, even has it written on the recipe with a highlighter over it! Oh well, more cake for hubby in the next week or so!! 

One thing i did manage was to go back to my old childhood home town and see the christmas lights switch on, and my brother, sis in law and my little niece visited too (lovely as they live a few hrs drive away so was lovely to watch the  switch on with them). 


And the great thing was spotting these post box toppers round the town! 



 Loved them! I cant knit or crotchet (well i can but am rubbish at it) so have SO much respect for these. 

So, what's on your workdesk this Wednesday?
