Straight after my usual Wednesday morning sewing group, I have ten or twelve folk coming round. It is my turn to host our Life group, so I thought I'd bake them some cookies.
Now they are all done, so there's the darker Anzac biscuits, the golden Dad's cookies, and the rather oddly shaped lemon jumblies. And because the jumblies only use the zest of the lemons, I have sliced up the fruit ready to open-freeze, then I will box them up and use them in our cold drinks over the next week or two - 'waste not, want not' as my mum used to say!
I haven't done much crafting this week but the cards I have made will be shown in due course when they arrive at their destinations.
But I have been busy posting on my other blog, so do feel free to pop over there and see what was 'rocking in my world' last week, and then a couple of bits about my sons and what they have been getting up to.
And if that's not up your street, try visiting Julia's blog instead, and see what other crafters are busy with today. I'll be joining you there as soon as I can.

ReplyDeleteIt all looks very yummy.

Wow, now I'm REALLY hungry. Lovely baked goods. And freezing lemons to add to drinks is a great way to use them after they've been zested. And because it's still Wednesday in my part of the world, have a super WOYWW from #17.
ReplyDeleteI lurve Anzac biscuits so I wish I could reach that far. I too freeze lemons and make marmalade too. I remember going to stay in La Zubia when my friend lived there and the lady in the local bar gave me some lemons from her trees as a gift when my friend told her that I made marmalade. 15kg!!!! I brought them all home stuffed in everywhere and luckily I had space as I'd taken so much over for my friend.
