In The English Kitchen today, S'mores Rocky Road. Deliciously different. No bake bars filled with a lovely combination of salty and sweet!  

I had my field vision test yesterday at the Eye Doctor and passed again with flying colours. I am good to go. So now all I have to do is to go back to the Department of Motor Vehicles with my filled in form and exchange my license. I have no explanation for why I failed the eye test at the DMV.  It is snowing today and quite cold.  Sometime today I will try to take some pictures of the colours of yarn I bought.  They are really pretty. 

A friend of mine in the UK had the shot for the virus earlier this week and is feeling absolutely awful. I wonder what is up with that. Kind of scary. Time will tell.

 

Have a super Friday. Whatever you get up to don't forget!
