Through the EduDolj project, funded by European Social Fund+, we run adult basic skills classes in Dolj county (RO): reading, writing, simple maths and everyday digital use.

Adults learn in small groups, using worksheets and interactive boards, gaining confidence step by step. Communities and organisations interested in adult learning may find EduDolj an inspiring example. 📚

When I first got married, some 27 years ago, my grandmother gave me a copy of the Fannie Farmer Cookbook. I treasured it until it couldn't make a transatlantic move with me.

I just picked up a digital copy on sale using my #Kobo points, and I am unreasonably happy.

Finally convinced myself that it’s ok to put aside my WIP to play with this super simple kit I bought on vacation 🧵

I had to pull out my own needle (the one in the kit wasn’t great) and there was just enough thread to finish all the outlines.

I’ve pulled out my sewing kits to finish the inside of the middle leaf 🥹 it’s been a fun few hours 🪡
