Another day of sunshine 30C 86F. I don't normally hang laundry out any more but the washer decided to be difficult this morning when I did a small load I didn't get done yesterday. DH is trying to figure out where the problem lies. Meanwhile I had sopping wet things that needed to be dried. The sunshine did a fine job.
We dropped off some boxes at the thrift store then stopped at a market to buy a few fresh vegetables and fruit also more of the $1.99 cherries that were advertised. It's enough for the two of us for the rest of the week.
Thank you for the comments left on my last post. There were a couple of questions I wanted to answer.
Regarding the flans I made. I realize that the name flan often refers to a custard dessert with a layer of caramel sauce on top. The ones I made are not like that. The pans I use are called flan pans for some reason so we call the resulting cake a flan. They are so easy to make that it's not even a recipe. I used a basic white cake mix for the base. Once they were baked and cooled I spread a vanilla pudding into the middle and covered that with strawberries that I had also cooked briefly and thickened.
The other question was about the doily under the bouquet of flowers. I picked that up at the thrift store for a mere dollar. I never learned to crochet and have enjoyed finding lovely crocheted items at thrift stores and garage sales. The work that goes into making one and then to see them sold for so little !!
That's my Tuesday so far. I better get the things in off the clothes line and see if I need to iron anything. Maybe sticking them in the dryer briefly will soften them after drying rather stiff in the sun.
Thanks for visiting.
