Of Frocking, Shopping and Sloe Picking.

Hii! ^^ Pardon if this seems super random but I found your profile cause I saw you're into sewing! I'm just starting out (as in I just finished my first project, yay), so I was wondering if you'd like to be LJ friends. ^.^

Not sure how you feel about random friend-age but I'm a pretty normal person ^^; Er, let me know! <3 :D

Himself is a great cook when I can enthuse him. Next time maybe we'll fire up the GMNT too cook! ;)

And if you need a bit more help with the 50's frock, just holler.

Gave Detling a miss this year - too many other things to do, unfortunately.

Call me back in a couple of years if you need help drinking Sloe Gin...

I don't think we'll need help exactly... COMPANY, maybe... ;)

My other trick is Rumtoft... GMNT likes to drink the juice.

Mmmmmmm Sloe gin. :) I'm just making redcurrant vodka for Yule. I'm told it ages beautifully but it's never had a chance here.

Sounds like a brilliant weekend.
