T stands for......this and that!

Hi everyone! 
Really....a week? I look around and see nothing that actually says 'mission accomplished'.....does it matter?
The answer is no, not really, we are still getting bits and pieces done or partly done, we are watching some catch up series on TV and still enjoying cooking sessions either in turns, or as a joint effort! 
We had intended doing a jigsaw but the table was needed for sorting out papers and we've given up on the idea for a while! We have both been doing word or number puzzles torn from newspapers or supplements that we would have taken on travels(they are easy to do on train journeys and can easily be discarded once done)No travelling for the time being so we thought why not sit on the balcony and look out at the trees not going by!!

I have quite a few backgrounds in some of my journals and I have started making samples for the Crafty Individuals Hochanda shows next month. 
Here is page I actually completed for Mia's 'Flowers' theme at Art Journal Journey.

I used a brayer to put some Distress Oxide colours on my page, spritzing and drying between layers of Picked Raspberry and Tea Dye and then added some stencilling using the dotty stencil and Cracked Pistachio ink. I used a small background stamp by Tracy Evans after stamping and colouring the gorgeous flowers by Bipasha, using Derwent Inktense water colour pencils. 

I also got around to making a cloth to cover the IKEA storage block that my pear collection sits on...most of these were bought for me, I bought one of the wooden ones and then hubby bought me another!

We saw these beautiful colours the other evening, across the car park.

 I also have our drinks of water to show you for T Stands for Tuesday over at Bleubeard and Elizabeth's blog The Altered Book Lover.

This is a meal that we made together, I can't imagine how long it would have taken one of us on our own, as there were so many ingredients in this Tagine - and lots of chopping and cutting! It has a lot of vegetables and a little chicken.

It's a good job we weren't planning on having a dessert...we halved a recipe for 4!!!

As I am so late posting I suspect that once again many of you will be receiving belated T day wishes so can I just say now....Happy T Day to everyone!

I'm sure that you are all doing your best to stay safe, this will all be over one day, but for now we must be patient!

Thanks for looking, Chris
