Beautiful weather today, a little rain last night...

WEDNESDAY

Realized I'd let my supply of Diet Pepsi run out so first thing today I headed out to Walgren's sale to remedy that problem,  Stopped at SalvArmy hoping to pick up a couple jigsaw puzzles I'd passed on last week but they were gone.  I know that if you pass up on something second thoughts rarely do any good but I tried. 

Mixed up a half batch of pizza dough for tonight's supper but when I weNt up to assemble it found the dough hadn't risen.  Had to reneg on supper for Leofwyna and ran to pick up something on the way to A&S farble tonight.  I think since I was using the newer mix and activate method that perhaps I didn't have the water hot enough; I've been used to being careful not to have it too hot for the pre-soak method.  I'll try again tomorrow.

At A&S we had a brisk discussion of making things for personal use, to gift or for competition.  Present was Gyda, Vilhjalhmer, Zino, Gerald, TOCD, Sigtryigg, Eulalia, Aibhilin and myself.  I worked on the banner during the discussion and at the end was asked about it.  When I opened it up and said it was for the new baronial banner I received many gratifying compliments on it.  The drawing of the winged bull was done by Thedrich and since I'm hand embroidering it may take a year or more to complete.  I really want to get it done soon enough for Sash to enjoy it awhile before he steps down so I'm well motivated.
