I’ve spent 6hrs mostly sewing today*. I feel I ought to have a dress but instead have only most of a bodice. It’s slow work dealing with floaty silk. Enjoyable though and I have time yet. I won’t get any more done this evening. I’m tired and my back has had enough sewing. I’m so not “match fit”. The tired might also have something to do with the champagne that got drunk at breakfast**
This morning I managed to not burn the house down. What I have managed is to burn out another brew heater band. Bother. That’s $100 over two dead heaters. These are just not robust enough, though they seem to be fine if not under any pressure. This time the covering towel had got tucked under the fermenter, tight against the band. Enough to cause it to over heat. Pooh. Need another solution. I suppose I’ll get a heater plate? I don’t know that there are any other options?
*well I polished 5 handbags and set dinner going in there too.
**favourite cafe had a cup sweep and I drew the 'orse wot came second. There will be free cheesecake and coffee when next I have time to get back there. Woo hoo! (and thanks to Bar Barra)
