Christmas Carol Ann

Ex-academic. Ex-engineer. I like opera, theatre, live music, art. Mathematics and science interest me. I read a lot, nowadays, knit a bit, and go out less than I would like to. Random posts, no theme.

Slow cooker deployed. I have put potatoes in at the beginning with the meat and vegetables. Hope they don’t go soggy

We planted a fig tree a few years ago. It gave us these two little green figs the following year. It has refused to give us any more since. The leaves are pretty though

The giant tin of olives that I bought online by mistake. I ended up freezing them in small batches. We were eating them for months

The last time we ate chips in the Woolwich Public in the brief interlude when it was an excellent food court between it being a derelict covered market and a derelict covered market

Morning!
I’ve got a sort of advent calendar going on of clothes that have been hanging in my wardrobe for years waiting for “occasions”. Behind today’s door is a gold shirt

Today I am wearing the posh tartan trousers and loopy waistcoat, even though I’m not going out anywhere to show them off

These two look just as cute as yours. They absolutely destroyed that tree. Literally. Broke the branches off. And it was a sturdy, expensive tree. Good luck with yours 😄

Neither. I like the blue ones

Looking at bracelets on the Tiffany website. Somebody doesn’t know the difference between circumference and diameter. I don’t think they’re expecting us to divide by pi

Looking for a jumper to put on and found this glittery green one in the wardrobe. It’s been there two years and still has the tags on. Obviously waiting for an “occasion” to wear it. I think it looks great with corduroys for a day indoors
