I think I left my post-forming ability in my other bag
~ Now that's what I call a weekend. It was constantly sunny, we visited lovely National Trust properties (Buscot Park (wonderful, incredible gardens, interesting house, still growing collection, decent coffee and delicious cake 5/5) and Basildon Park (smaller gardens, nice lawns, gorgeous views, bad coffee, expensive and not-so-nice cake 3.5/5)) and didn't really do anything except sit or stroll in the sunshine. At home, I Got Things Done, which is also a nice feeling. Pictures to follow, but the camera cable is currently MIA.
~ Oxford People I think it's too short notice this time around, but there's a pamper evening at Osney on Wednesday, then another one on 28th May in Cowley, run by Ingotec and the Dragonfly co-operative. They make jewellery to raise money to buy IT equipment for charities, and the evenings look lovely. Details here, tickets £5 including a drink. There's also a clothes swap -![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)

~ Despite starting the day horribly grumpy, I've discovered that there's nothing sunshine and shopping cannot cure. I love the covered market here in Oxford, and not only because it contains a yarn shopw. They had the perfect fabric for lining the bag I've made my mum, I got meat (pigeon!), rhubarb and cakes for work and carried them all back wishing I had a wicker basket to put them in - it just felt like that kind of. Failing that, I'm going to have to get back on my bike. The weather must be good if I'm contemplating that...
~ I've been shying away from making lists over the last few weeks, for reasons that made sense to me, but I've done a new set this morning, all neat and tidy and in multiple colours, and am feeling much better. Apparently I just don't cope with life unless I'm writing a list of some kind. This would worry me more if I wasn't so relieved at having a nice, neat list on my desk where I can cross things out.
~ Does anyone have a foolproof wholemeal bread recipe? That's the only thing that went wrong over the weekend, and while I can just dig another one out of a book, I'd rather know what actually *works* for people. We have a breadmaker, but since it's stuck behind 8 other things in our tiny kitchen, by hand is more practical right now!
