π·1) I have been enjoying the autumn sun coming in the window, and captured this from upstairs. I've slowly been making slip covers for this sofa- finished the green cushions, and cut and pinned the linen floral furnishing fabric for the main couch both thrifted fabrics.
π·2) Picking and enjoying home grown tomato's shown in a bowl.
π·3-5) Masaman curry- from Recipe Tin Eats website. It has the option using this tin of Maesri brand paste that is available in supermarkets.
I modify the recipe to make quicker, including cooking the meat in the pressure cooker for 20 minutes, then adding the cooked off paste and other ingredients for the sauce that I prep in a frypan that morning.
π·6-9) This foam mattress gets moved about to follow the shade some mild still days where I have time resting outside with gumtree views. Not pictured here-After dinner, we move the coffee table out of the way (it has wheels), and the mattress goes in its spot. Either to enjoy the open sliding glass doors or the wood fire. Usually, Darwin dog gets the best spot.
π·9)Pears from a friend's tree. π·10) I made my go to Recipe Tin Eats oat bars with them.
π·11) I held the first Collective Rest video call. You can catch the recording on my youtube and book next weeks videocall- Links in bio. I've figured out the recording settings, and the next one will be better quality. Get in touch if you have questions, I'd love to make the videocalls as accessible as possible.
I hope your body and mind are kind to you today
