Woke to torrential rain this morning and after the initial, obligatory “why’s it always wait until the weekend to rain” grump, kind of got into the swing of things.
Having had an extremely physically tiring day yesterday we enjoyed a bit of a lie-in until 9am (which, considering the alarm often goes off at 5am in this house is actually rather a long lie-in!) – only interupted by a quick trip to the garden to let the dog out and open the chicken coop. This was followed by a soaking while walking the dog, breakfast, then I decided to do some baking.
A quick stop for a brandy coffee (well, brandy latte really – sans cream), then along with lunch of the day, I made some orange curd, baked egg custard and cinnamon buns.
Having had the egg custard after lunch, I’m feeling rather stuffed. Tea will be bacon butties (the OH didn’t get the bread on in time for us to have them for breakfast or lunch) and no doubt a cinnamon bun (or 2).
Maybe rainy days aren’t so bad after all – well, the garden needs it!!!
