Quiet weeks are to be looked forward to, but only when they’re not the result of the end of tourist season! Things should be getting closer to normal over the next few weeks. We can hope, anyway.
This week’s report is mostly bone carving and embroidery, not even very much cookery, although the sauerkraut went into the fridge.

This coming week is mostly normal until Friday. At that point Anja is heading out for Shrewsbury. Loren will have Project Day on Sunday if anyone shows up. The report is likely to be out on Tuesday, not Monday…. Lots of write-up.

Early Week – Loren stayed hard at work on the bone pieces for the sewing kit that he and Anja are doing.
Cookery – The sauerkraut went into the fridge. A scalded milk cheese happened on Thursday. That will go to Shrewsbury, along with the pickles that we did a couple of weeks ago.
Sewing – Was all about the sewing kit pieces… By Wednesday evening a couple were done, most of the rest had the embroidery done. The snip sheath was finished on Thursday and the tape measure pouch was underway. All of the embroidery was finished by Sunday and several of the pieces are done. Loren got the set of needles and fid finished then, too.
Sundials, etc. – Needles and fids this week again. …plus a trial run on a slice of wood to be treated as the antler was.
Herb Bunch – More incense. No pictures, most of the stuff was mundane this week.
Project Day – All the pictures are above. It was just Loren and Anja and the projects that have been ongoing.
