I thought I'd have a look at my list of non-resolutions to see how I am progressing with them so far
I have read Wilkie Collins' The Woman in White and Boris Pasternak's Dr Zhivago, and am currently reading Villette on my Kindle, so the read one classic book this year has already been completed.
I am still trying my best to eat healthily, although it did stumble slightly when I kept getting viruses.
I have made some of my own bread and will continue to do so. I have also decided it would be good to try at least one different recipe per week. Today I cooked a chicken and mushroom gougere. I have never made choux pastry before so that was definitely a first.
I have been making dents in my wool stash, but did have to buy a ball of wool to complete something which I thought I had two balls the same , (enough to finish, ) but when I looked in daylight they were totally different. But the stash is diminishing.
I have only made a skirt so far from my fabric stash, and not done any more on the patchwork.
Entrelac knitting is going to be my next project in knitting.
The pot garden is being tidied slowly. I bought mini tools suitable for using in the pots, but the extended cold spell put me off trying to weed, as frozen earth does not give up weeds readily
The kitchen, I think, is a summer project.
All in all, I feel I have managed to keep pretty much to the promises I made to myself back in January.
