Another busy day

ailbheBfN from 10:30 to 12:30 turned out to be from 10:15 to 13:45! But it was lovely. And informative.
We discussed mastitis, recurring abcesses, cures, treatments, and the fact that actually, excruciating unbearable pain that doesn't go away IS a good reason to stop breastfeeding if that's what the woman wants to do, even if her handknitted yurt hasn't been diagnosed failure to galactogogue yet. Walk a mile in her boobs, etc.
I do so love the BfN. I wish I'd known about them when Linnea was a baby and the people around us were needing support.
Then my friend G and his three children came over.
For some reason, Louis was fragile on Monday, and Linnea was fragile today, and Linnea and G's T were fragile today. I wonder is there a bit of something going around. Kindergarten Fragility Virus.
I also made bread. I've discovered that the paella pan is a big enough bowl to mix 1.5kg of flour into dough at a time, so I can skip measuring the flour and use a whole bag. That makes two big loaves, but I think it will also make three smaller ones nicely, in the same tin, and then it will last a bit longer.
Tonight we need to clear the spare bedroom because Diz is coming to stay. And because it desperately needs to be cleared, of course.
