Scenes from Saturday

 I had a long tiring day on Friday so I stayed home on Saturday.

It was a spectacular bright and sunny day.

I bought a skein of yarn yesterday. I didn't know what to make with it but the colours are nice and soft for summer.  I've now decided on what to do with it and will likely need a few more skeins.  Here is the start to the project. It will take considerably more time than the dishcloths I've made recently. I'm making good on my intention of the year to be more creative (mainly with crafting).

I watched an old black & white classic movie which I've seen once before. It's called Portrait of Jenny starring Jennifer Jones and Edward Cotton. I enjoyed it but it's a bit sad as far as love stories go.  It's also in the realm of fantasy.  Here is a link to the full movie.

I really enjoyed Jennifer Jones in multiple roles. I believe the first movie I ever saw of hers was with William Holden, entitled "Love is a Many Splendid Thing".  I also enjoyed her in "The Song of Bernadette" for which she won an academy award.  Edward Cotton was in so many movies I saw as a young person. He was good in all of them. Have you seen any of these movies? Did you enjoy them?

Today,  I made chicken rice soup and dumplings. I put in too much rice so it's more like chicken rice stew (congee consistency).

The stew was very filling!

While I was cooking and crocheting I did a few loads of laundry. Now I'm set for tomorrow when I plan to go out.

Enjoy your evening and the rest of your week. Thanks for visiting!
