My New Baby
My new little laptop! Oh I can't tell you how thrilled I am. There it sits in my sewing room, and its MINE! The fight for the computer in this house was becoming unbearable. You literally had to book your time... well no longer my friends. And HANDS OFF to the rest of the Frasers, mama is on her own!!
So, while James had a little creative time, I had a wonderful hour playing with my new baby. However, computer literate I am not. I do struggle (and am reknowned for struggling :o) so progress my be slow, but I'm determined!
Then after spending a fortune on Etsy (maybe this wasn't such a good idea) I felt the need to crack open the first crop of rhubarb from my dad's garden...
Rhubarb crumble .... you can't beat it!





oooh yes I am always pinching my daughters laptop, what absolute heaven to have one in your own sewing room,
I made a blackberry and apple crumble last night, very delicious with custard,
yum-yum!!!!!!

Great! Since I work at home on-line for the past 10 years my rule has been - DON'T TOUCH MY COMPUTER! It took a few years for the family (my husband) to realize I wasn't being selfish but protective of my business. Finally, computers have become so affordable, we have several in the house and noone actually CARES about me and my computer anymore! They'd rather be on their cooler versions. Nice!

Congrats on your new baby! however be warned they do need a lot of attention, and if your not strict they will end up in bed with you!

Nice laptop but I was more excited to see a glimpse of your sewing room :)
I can see your family may have trouble dragging you away for your new baby!

Rhubarb crumble is the best! Think it will have to go on the menu for the weekend. We are expecting awful weather so would be perfect!!

Congrats on the lovely new laptop. There are only two of us in this house, but we still manage to scrabble over the computer.
