Good Friday | Pad Patter 4.19

I know today is officially called 'Good Friday' by a lot of people (including those that mass produce calendars) but I think there's at least some good in every day, it can just take some thought to identify the good in apparently not-good days.
I'm heading to bed in a second because I'm still fluey and hoping to wake up to what I'm thinking of as 'Silver-lining Saturday' (I'm definitely missing a few things this weekend but the bright side, some quiet and extra scrap time).

In the meantime, today I'd like you to share with us something good about your Friday. It can be anything, like something little but wonderful and could happen any Friday (like me finding these Difflam anaesthetic throat lozenges in the back of the medicine cupboard - seriously wonderful!) to overwhelmingly amazing and specific to capital G 'Good Friday' traditions! It's all good (see what I did there ;-) )

 

Lol this is exactly the kind of thing I meant! Glad your house is safe!

 

I totally get the blessing that is! (someone may have woken me this morning with the sound of the garage door going up because of course he's going to Bunnings early

 

Lol (Between us, usually I'm a bird person but I do sometimes really wonder, especially when sick or headache-y, why we have a pet bird. Especially after being at the in-laws while we were away, he's full of separation anxiety noise that increases in pitch the longer it takes for him to find me or DH. Our goldfish are so quiet in comparison but even they're pumps & equipment & moving rocks around the tanks can be noisy)

 

Good Friday is called Great Friday a lot b/c Yay long weekend ! This year here b/c Easter seems really late, if people played their day off cards right, they could have an extra long weekend, 7days in a row off, with a a public holiday for ANZAC day on the 25th next week. It's in the middle of school holidays so doesn't mean much for the kids but helps out a lot of parents

 

Yay for avoiding baggage claim!

 

#winning! (I started looking at the silhouette curio again yesterday, it's for card size stuff but does embossing & stuff as well as cutting & it's being packaged with the larger (letter /A4 size) cutting base pack for Mothers Day, I have til Tues I think to decide again but my desk looks like Everest at the moment (it's the dumping ground for everything so I've been scrapping on the dining table since MOC) & I don't know that I'm ready to tackle it any time soon & buying this would be a big commitment to sorting & cleaning it!

 

We found out we had wasps in the woodwork of the lounge room window a few years back ( I thought the buzzing was in my head or TV static kind of noise from appliances until one night when DH muted the TV & looked around & I realised he could hear it too! Kinda weird moral of the story - knowing things drive other people crazy makes us feel less crazy ;-)

 

Lol he said they were giving out free hot cross buns at the door (no sausages that early but still) & it would be amiss of me to omit that he then came home via Woolies so we all had hot cross buns this morning

 

I have to admit that I don't even know if a section for matzo stuff exists in our chain grocery stores but the scramble with cinnamon and apple you described sounds quite nice (is the matzo salty? I thought it was for savoury things like matzo ball soup? )
