7 things

Finally, the "7 things" are back! To avoid having to show you another 500 pictures of my laundry because I can't think of anything else, I have decided to follow Centi's idea and make it "7 things I used my hands for this weekend" instead of "7 things I used my hands for this Sunday", as originally suggested by Frau Liebe. Join us, if you feel like it!

This weekend, I...
...watered some little hopefuls.
...pinned some fabric together.
...baked some bread. I originally let the dough rise by just setting it in a bowl on the counter and then put on a lid and stuck it in the fridge overnight, as suggested by the recipe. When I checked on it a few hours later, the dough had continued to rise in the fridge, pressing the lid firmly against the ceiling of the fridge and escaping from every crack. I had serious trouble getting the whole monster out of the fridge again!
...fixed a hole in my favourite tights. Why do the best things always break first?
... had a luxurious breakfast outside.
...tied a bow.
...wrote some letters.

  3. I found this awesome collection of paper in a random shop a few weeks ago.I used the slightly tamer ones for my origami birds but this morning I was feeling brave so i picked the most colourful one I could find for the letters :D

  6. OH this is so lovely. Thank you for sharing the things you did with your hands! What a cool idea. And once you described the watering of the newly growing things, I figured out what you were starting them in!

  7. Sounds like you had a great weekend! I love the bread story ... though I must admit I really wanted a picture of that too. I'm guessing there might well have been some fridge cleaning too =)

    1. In unfortunately didn't remember to grab my camera until after I had cleaned up already. I wish I had recorded it. Next time, this is bound to happen again ;)

    1. Hey Laura,
      I used this recipe: How to make easy fast foolproof bread from scratch

      I really liked the result,it was super easy and it's very tasty.I still have half the dough left for another loaf. Make sure you take a BIG container with a FIRMLY CLOSING LID! ;)

  10. The bread was very tasty and once I had cleaned up the mess, I had to laugh about the escaping dough as well. Next time, I grab the camera first.
