Well, this morning the girls and I again made a foree to the church on the corner of our road. Luckily today was a far better experience than last week, the girls were, if not perfectly behaved, much better. We managed to make it through the first 30 minutes of the service without too many problems and then they went out to the sunday school along with the other children and I was able to concentrate by myself.
We got home from church to a houseful of people. A bit of a surprise to me, I'd only been expecting one visitor, but the much beloved's cousin and his wife were there too. I walked through the door and there they all were, and had tea been made or cake served.... no. Although there were muttered excuses as to why not and claims that they had been offered.
I must be getting a bit of a reputation for my cooking as a quiet voice pipes up in the corner.... Eve... can I have a piece of carrot cake please?
I'd tried a new recipe for the topping so I was a bit anxious, but thankfully it seemed to go down well with everyone. So a nice surprise rather than anything and its lovely to have a house that I'm happy to have people come and visit in.
I'm discovering a whole new side of me, sociable and happy to entertain... and I like it.
