Today has been one of my most sedentary days in recent history. Recovering from this bug seems to be two steps forward one step back, and while I felt a little better yesterday, today I am chesty and exhausted. I spent the morning tucking ends in on one of the girls' cardigans and watching Mad Men. I will have to leap into action this afternoon and at least do the washing up before I collect the girls. I had intended to make the hedgerow jelly today, but I would have to dig out and sterilise some jars and it all feels like too much.
I made a loaf of sourdough this morning. It looks the part and tastes the part, but the last two loaves haven't risen as well as they usually have been. I think I have been neglecting my starter and being a bit consistent the last couple of weeks, so perhaps that's all it is.
I'm planning to take the girls to the park this afternoon so I might have the opportunity to tuck in some more ends. At the moment it feels as though they will be a week's work alone, and I'm so ready to be finished with these cardigans.
