Used Goods are Good Goods

Check out my new finds from the Danish Mission (charity store). A nice little handmade vase by Karen in 1993 - it says so on the bottom. Some mauve-ish wool yarn - lots of it and a bargain at 12 Kronner, and a book - its in danish, and I got it in the religion section, but I was just looking for a book to paste things into and this one had a nice cover.


This was dinner last night. Regular salmon and cauliflower. The rice however, is a dish I've made twice now and I really like it. Its brown rice with a smattering of wild rice in it. I cook it on the stove top with mushrooms, carrots, celery, garlic, and vegetable bullion. Its filling, comforting, and tasty.


I'm also cooking *cakes* a lot these days. Peter doesn't like bread or toast, and I feel like he should have some - Who doesn't eat a bit a of bread each day, you can only take so much fruit and veggies. Plus I can make these eggless, with spelt flour, or even throw in some ground flax - and he still thinks he's getting a treat.

When I get a break from playing cars or star wars with Pete I've been working on a few knitting projects. This one I've finished knitting, but I need to felt it. I tried to felt a swatch in my front loading machine and it didn't shrink or felt in the least. So this might have to go back to the states with me to finish it the way I want.
