So what am I celebrating this week?
I had a lovely birthday weekend last week. A night out with my girlfriends, and then the next day I took a whole pile of clothes to a clothing swap. I didn't find as many new things as I might have liked, but I did get a gorgeous new winter coat which kind of makes up for the fact I only really found 3 other things.
I've made some progress with my revision of My Murder Year. And even more importantly, I have ideas where I need to change things and drop little pieces of information in. I'm still thinking about how to reveal things at the other end of the book, but that's okay because I have a while before I get there and hopefully by the time I do, I'll have worked it all out.
I have a nice, quiet weekend ahead of me, although I do have to clean my oven. We had a special lunch at work yesterday, and I made quiches. Unfortunately my custard mixture spilled out over the pastry a little on one of them, and leaked through the bottom of the quiche pan while it was baking. So now the bottom of my oven looks like it's covered with a layer of omelet…
What are you celebrating this week?
Except for the leaky quiche, it sounds like a pretty good week. I'm glad you had a nice birthday. :)
ReplyDeleteYes, the cooker certainly sounds like a bit of a nightmare but your birthday was obviously great fun and I have recently been introduced to clothes swaps or "swishing" as it was called at the event I attended!! Looks like we've both had good weeks to celebrate :)

Yay for a great birthday and a girls night out! I've never heard of a clothing swap. I've only been to garage sales in the US. Clothing swaps with no money exchanging hands sounds great! Sorry to hear about your oven. That's a lot of work. I've needed to clean mine for over a year - I keep putting it off...
ReplyDeleteCleaning an oven is the worst. Glad you had a great birthday! Have a great weekend :)
ReplyDeleteGlad you had a fun birthday and night out! Sounds like you're making a lot of progress with your writing, too. I hope that oven doesn't take too much work to clean out. Have a great week!
