It is getting close to 30°C so we move around the house at the same pace as the sun. There is a light breeze which I appreciate as I'm not fond of heat.
Blaming my inertia on the heat I stay in the shadow with my feet up not doing much. Mails will be answered — but not now.
As always, I found more at Gutenberg than I have time or energy to read. Like a lovely book about knitting and crochet.
Wristers or Pulse-Warmers
Wristers or pulse-warmers, are very comfortable on a cold day, and those described particularly so, as they fill the sleeve and completely exclude the wind.

If somebody thought puls-warmers being something new you have to rethink, this book was published in 1918.
Crochet Jacket
One color or two may be used for making this pretty jacket, which is extremely modish, and very comfortable for the cool days and evenings sure to be experienced during summer outings. Six skeins of fourfold Germantown will be sufficient; or four skeins of one color for the body and two of white for the border, if made in two colors.
"The Writer, Volume VI, April 1892. A Monthly Magazine to Interest and Help All Literary Workers" sounded too interesting to pass. How could I not take a look at a magazine with this content?

Ellen, I might add a recipe for müsli another day — it's a bit tricky as I seldom use the same ingredient and never measure anything. But I'll see what I can do another day — a day when it isn't quite as hot as today. Meanwhile you'll get my Danish recipe for red currant jam. I use it for white and black currants as well as it is so simple and fast.Rysteribs
