Went for a walk this morning along the bike path, past a lake that is a bird sanctuary. Accordingly Sienna was leashed, something this spoilt pooch is becoming fast unaccustomed to. She pulled us along like a freight train doing the midnight run!
I made these shorts for this summer, from Burda 7723 out of white linen, with added rear pockets for back view interest. When a woman reaches a “certain age” one’s rear view unfortunately becomes less than exciting… I sewed on scraps of fabric leftover from my dress of two days ago, and a sparkly ribbon sewn down randomly across the whole back, plus a tiny knitted square I had hanging around my sewing basket. No idea what it was doing there, but stuck it on anyway.Another very hot day in the offing; so will keep things quiet and easy, probably go to the beach and try to meet up with our good friends who are down here also. Definitely not ruling out a smoothie at Samudra either. I think fish and chips on the beach might be the order of this evening. Accompanied by a G&T? Or two? Oh, behave!
