National Biscuit Day
Yes, another day well worth celebrating.
Yes, I love a biscuit ... both homemade & bought. Inb fact I didn't know about this day, and it was a couple of days ago I made my last batch, so I can celebrate in style.
According to There Is A Day For That they have a few facts I thought I would share ... whether you live over here, or elsewhere in the world.
Brits eat 52 biscuits per second on average, so it makes sense to have a day to celebrate this favourite tea-time treat.
A recent poll has revealed Britain's favourite biscuits -
So, I must have biscuits with my meals today ... I think it must be the law (and that's my excuse!!)

Right let's catch up.
Work has been going well over the last couple of days, although they were quite long days. Made slightly longer as on one of the evenings I ended up (text) chatting to a friend in USA ... so lost track of time, but for them it was only late afternoon. Still it was a nice reason to be tired, so am not moaning at all.
Today I have the day off and had a lazy start but I really must get some shopping, cleaning and cooking done. So I really shouldn't be sitting here! Especially as I also want to get some icons made for a 20in20 over at DW.
Anyway before I get on (and eat biscuits) I shall catch up with you all ... But as ever, before I post this ...
In 1826 Ebenezer Butterick was born - the inventor of the tissue paper sewing pattern. Have you ever made a clothing item using a paper pattern?
Until a few years ago I made a lot of stuff. Always with a pattern. And, it's something I keep aiming to get back to.
Mum used to make everything ... including both Claire's and Brenda's wedding dresses.
Right, let's catch up x
