Feast Progress – More breads, candies are ready. Gonna cook all day Saturday and eat on Sunday!
Early Week – Baking started the week.
Cookery – Monday was breads…pies, or at least the filling. Breads, Chicken and soup was Tuesday and Wednesday, and lemons for the feast chicken. Breads, Cheese spice and finding various soups and pieces and getting them together was Wednesday. During the rest of the week we were too nuts to take pictures or keep track! There are a few pix waiting to be developed.
Sewing – No pix, but cuffs and footstool cover were worked on.
Sundials, etc. – Set up a project box for the sanding of kitchen tools.
Herb Bunch – Other the using some harvested stuffs in the foods, this was all watering.
Music – Ancient FM
