Another day, another morning tea. This time it's the Monthly Residents Morning Tea. It is usually very well attended, probably due to the free food and drink!
The only thing I find derrr is that almost all the men sit together at a big table, and then all the women at other tables. There are a few men who mix it up and actually sit with their wives. Once Stew starts going to these things, he better sit with ME. ππ
I don't really know why I'm going cos I'm not going to be having any of the food. It's always bog standard pre-frozen savouries (not that nice), slices cut into TEENY TINY pieces and OMG Fucking EGG SANDWICHES. Gross.
Who the hell likes egg sandwiches? Not me.
The only reason I go is to show my face, be present and sociable.
It's only for an hour or so, so not too long out of my day.
ABOVE: There is the runner I made yesterday, I finished it last night.
I'm a bit annoyed because I should have put BEE, not BE. But oh well, it's still cute. I saw it on a t-shirt a while ago, and finally did it as a runner.
I'm going to make one more today, then see how they go at market.
OH and Stew worked out it would take THIRTY SIX YEARS of using the clothes dryer twice a week to spend $6,600 ... so yeah, not getting that awning. We will use the clothes dryer! lol
ONWARD...
ABOVE: I was so happy to see how well this huge succulent has started recovering after the huge frost we had a few weeks ago. The frost had killed a large percentage of the plant. Now though, there's heaps of new growth, lots of little shoots coming off the branches around where bits simply fell off. So happy, as this succulent must be years and years old. It's special, and I love it.
10.20 am. I decided not to go to the morning tea... just wasn't in the mood.




I love egg salad sandwiches was going to make one for dinner but then decided to have fried eggs on crumpets. Not crazy about the bee runner but loved the fish ones. Gigi
ReplyDeleteI love egg sandwiches!! Regarding Stew once he retires and goes to these get togethers... he absolutely should sit with the other men - the entire point is to make new friends and contacts. If he sits with you he's not gaining anything from it. It's a shame he's not interacting more with the village before he retires. Is there anything on at the weekends?
ReplyDeleteLove egg sandwiches. I agree with Linda about the men sitting together etc, they undoubtedly spend most of their time with their wives so getting together and gossiping (because oh they will despite saying otherwise) gives them that friendship & interaction that can be missing when not working.
ReplyDeleteUm... me too. I love egg sandwiches. Especially curried egg xx Colleen

Love the Bee runner-so cute. I tried to comment the other day on another runner but it would not let me...loving the new colors. You are so talented!! Laurie
ReplyDeleteOne of the lead actors on my last film LOVED Egg Salad Sandwiches. I got them for him. Curious, I tried one myself for the first time since childhood. It was kind of tasty. Nostalgic.
ReplyDeleteOh I love a good egg sandwich ... has to be mashed egg with a dash of mayo and some chopped up chives ❤️
ReplyDeleteI’m another egg sandwich lover….especially a curried egg and lettuce one
