What's on my Workdesk Wednesday

Morning folks...it's Wednesday and in 3 days time the big day will be here but first another important day in the crafty calendar...it's time to join all the lovely crafters over at WOYWW and artistic licence has been brought into play this morning because technically my workdesk today is the kitchen worktop groaning under all the food I've been slaving over since the weekend and if you are feeling peckish...better look away now if not...get yourselves a cuppa...a comfy sofa and chill out....

more stock for the freezer and the Ham and Roast Beef all ready for carving

must admit to having one or two tastes of this delicious smoked ham....
willpower and food just don't go together...do they?

they don't call us Scots thrifty for no reason....nothing goes to waste in this house...the left overs will be used to make stock for tomorrow's huge pot of lentil soup and then the bone will be handed over to the Furry Boy for a final chew....

but we are feeling ever so slightly cream crackered.... this cooking malarkey is tiring work.....much harder than anything the cubbyhole can throw at us so after our morning stroll it's time for the kitchen dog to have a snooze

while I sit and relax for 5 minutes with a welcome mug of Hot Chocolate....

The kitchen has a permanent resident at the moment...even although the oven is going great guns...right by my side through thick and thin with his" Look At Me....I'm Starving" expression so typical of goldies 

such dedication to duty deserves a tasty morsel or two....wouldn't you agree

but there is always a  crafty job to do and while the oven is working it's magic with the Meat Loaves...we are off to the cubbyhole to fix E-Z mount to these beauties...

Crafting and cooking are my two passions and I think it was Winston Churchill who said...."when you find a job you love...you will never have to work again"...he was right about the crafting not so sure about the cooking job and guess who turned up at the cubbyhole this morning....yes Santa dressed up as my lovely postie with some Christmas Cheer.....will share tomorrow.
