He really liked this Applesauce Cake. I do it as a loaf cake. And also add walnuts.
It works well as a vegan cake.

A tad windy out there....
Too dark yet to check on things, but shed door off (expected).
I hope the 2 chickens who chose to roost at the top of the tree are still here and not now in Scotland

Good morning.
A slow start after a late night.
Was up in Belfast with sis. Lovely meal, then Midge Ure at the Ulster Hall. Fantastic night!

Two dodgy ones here.
The second one followed me but unfollowed when I didn't reciprocate

It'll get sorted, I'm sure. No major damage done, thank goodness
December 9, 2024 at 7:12 AM
Aye, if you know anyone who can wield an axe, let me know too

Potato bread (farls)
and potato bread (loaf)
Potato farls are an essential part of an Ulster Fry.
The other is delicious bread

Tnx.
I can follow patterns.
Anyway, onto another cat's rear end, now!

1st cat quilt panel done.
Thank you, all, for the appliqué advice.
I'm happy with my first go at this method.

My bedroom was cold last week, but my bed was warm, sheltered and safe. I am blessed.
I help a little.

They look good! I'd be chuffed with them.
Dad loved my soda farls. He said they were better than the Newtownards Saturday Market soda stall produce. I'm not so sure!

Quilting advice sought!
I want to make an appliquéd quilt for a special friend.
I have only ever done needle-turn appliqué for simple shapes.
These pieces are more complex, so I'm thinking fusible paper backed web would be a better way to go.
Could anyone recommend a suitable weight Web, please?

Yep!

Good morning.
A gorgeous dawn today.
I might get that late lawn cut at lunchtime as it's dry for once

Good morning.
A rubbish night's sleep so I'm late up.
Was woken eventually by a skein of honking Whooper Swans in a blue sky.
Hopefully the ground will dry more today

Nearly into Cairnryan now. Smooth crossing
