A lot of beading

This morning I busied myself with getting the house tidy. Over the past couple of weeks, bits and pieces have been piling up around the place. It took me a few hours to get everything straightened out again. I did some more washing and other bits and pieces before sitting down and having the leftovers of last night's salad for lunch.

After lunch I got busy beading. I finally made the other earring of the designs I had been trying out and I also started making some for gifts. It's so hard to decide what people might like! I ended up making 8 new pairs of earrings including some red and green Christmas stars and some flower earrings for kids.

I started photographing all my designs so that when I give them away for presents at least I will remember what I have done. I am thinking I will use the photos and start another blog - kind of like a catalogue of my designs.

After finishing the earrings, I got busy making a fritatta for dinner. My goal is to use up all the stuff in the freezers and cupboards before we head home. I used frozen spinach, feta cheese, cherry tomatoes, the left over chicken from last night, eggs and cheese. I did have to borrow an egg from the Miller's though. I had never made a fritatta before but it was so easy - just like a big omellette. I cooked it first on stove top and then finished cooking it under the grill.

Tonight we didn't watch any TV and headed to bed early which was nice.
