Saturday 25th October - pages from my Commonplace Book

 Yesterday was busy (apart from arranging things on the shelves of my new little table). Today was... not busy... so here are some pages from.my last Commonplace Book instead of regaling you with the entirely uninteresting details of the day.


I'd noticed a lot of '3 ingredient cake' recipes or ssimilar, and when I looked, they all seemed to involve 'bisquick' or 'a box of white cake mix'... ingredients that I had no knowledge or experience of. So I researched... 

The next photo is something shared by a good friend. I don't know the original source.



I'm slowly reading 'Meditations for Mortals' by Oliver Burkeman;


This was a card from my son from a few years ago. Inside, the cat says 'is there anything you need pushed off a table or counter top you?'


Random quotes;


Random recipe (I haven't tried it) and a quote from a stitching blog I rate highly 


I've been writing in Commonplace Books off and on for a number of years, collecting all sorts scraps, and sometimes adding my own thoughts and opinions. I find it fascinating going through the old ones as it brings back memories of what I was reading and doing at the time.

  1. I have never understood why BisQuick is so popular in the USA. It hardly takes a moment to mix fat and flour together.
