First I made a big slab of Zucchini slice to cut up into squares and freeze for my work lunches. It smelt so delicious when it came out of the oven that I had to have a slice for my Sunday lunch - lol!
Then I decided to bake bread rolls (first time ever!) using this recipe from the lovely Melissa from St John's Stitcher, it is her Nan's recipe. You can find it here.
Lovely, hot, straight out of the oven with a pat of butter.
Then I made some raspberry shortbread slice, from a very old recipe of mine (not sure where it originated from). It is delicious with a cup of coffee.
Then I got down to some serious stitching. First off I finished an exchange piece - I am so pleased with it but I can only show you snippets until the recipient gets it.
Then I finished "Haunted House" as my May piece for the Halloween Ornie SAL
I just squeezed it in under the "Monsters" theme as it has a ghost in it.
It is another freebie from Maja of The Snowflower Diaries.
So, I was very pleased with myself this Sunday. Although I may have pushed myself too hard as I am not feeling too good this morning - a bit achey all over, I hope that I am not coming down with some sort of virus!
Have a great week everyone.
hugs,

What a great Sunday!! All your cooking looks wonderful. I've got some zucchinis in the fridge, I think I'll be making zucchini slice tomorrow after seeing yours. Your cross stitched pieces are so cute and fun!!
What a busy day!!
Your stitching is lovely, I particularly like Maja's floating ghost lady. You wouldn't mind being haunted by her!
wonderful stitching but your baking has made me hungry! I made have to ask you for The raspberry shortbread recipe.
Oh my, all these yummy looking baked things. Makes me hungry all over although I had breakfast just an hour ago. But I have a sweet tooth and always feel hungry when I see a cake or a cookie or any kind of sweets, lol.
