Foiled by the Devil's Spit!

Well, I forgot to make blackberry crumble the day after we picked them and didn't see my lover and have cooking opportunity for a few days. Meanwhile they got all furry, so the Devil is welcome to them! my lover settled for an apple crumble instead - first one I've made - he reckons it was very good. He also had spare one to take home!


 
 

...and looking foreward to being less busy.

I've finished the one part-time job and officially started a new one. New one has less fixed commitments, so a lot more flexible. I am hoping to build up consultancy stuff as it would be nice to eat as well as pay my bills! I'm helping friend with dissertation and completing handover on completed job, so still not quite there.

Have managed to find time with my lover and recently celebrated his birthday together. Also took him to see the joys of Roath Park and all the wild and tame fowl on the lake. Trees are fabulous this autumn, aren't they? Apparently combination of wet summer and dry autumn - That said - it's been pretty wet today!

Saw some late and large and juicy blackberries in pub carpark and picked them for mini crumble. They must be last decent ones in area as they all disappeared elsewhere a few weeks ago. I decided that despite the superstuition, these were ones that the Devil missed and forgot to spit on!

Still around...

..just very, very busy.
Getting to see my lover reasonably frequently and had nice times together. I've just had several work projects and training opportunities come together, so busy times.
I have a new part-time job about to start and am finishing off another one, while trying to promote consultancy stuff - Phew!
I'm off delivering training with my Lover tomorrow which will be nice, but preparation has taken ages. Will be lovely to have it complete, especially as we have repeat date in few months.
