Sunday- another NSD for me.
Just baked loads of biscuits and banana choc-chip cake for next week's packed lunches.
Kitchen now looks like an explosion in a bakery but fortunately my son had already offered to clean up if I would make him some choc-chip cookies.
All the washing and ironing done and put away, nothing urgently needs doing so I'm currently sitting down with a pot of tea and about to start reading a book I've bern waiting for the warmer weather to start reading.
