No. 12
I bought a cheap green dress in Primark and tried to dye it for part of my Halloween outfit. I thought I would also have a go at a yellow dress I have as it’s a bit bright for the winter but I like the shape. One worked out well, the other not so much!
Here’s the before…

So I had a go at my own chicken noodle soup. It may be one to add to the recipe book @ No. 43.

Salman Rushdie – I’ve heard the name, not sure I recognise the face, how sheltered a life I lead! Anyhoo, according to wikipedia:
Sir Ahmed Salman Rushdie (born 19 June 1947) is a British Indian novelist and essayist. He achieved fame with his second novel, Midnight’s Children (1981), which won the Booker Prize in 1981. Much of his early fiction is set on the Indian subcontinent. His style is often classified as magical realism mixed with historical fiction, and a dominant theme of his work is the story of the many connections, disruptions and migrations between the Eastern and Western world.
His fourth novel, The Satanic Verses (1988), was the center of The Satanic Verses controversy, with protests from Muslims in several countries. Some of the protests were violent, with Rushdie facing death threats and a fatwā issued by Ayatollah Ruhollah Khomeini, the Supreme Leader of Iran, in February 1989.
He was appointed a Knight Bachelor for “services to literature” in June 2007,[1]. He holds the rank Commandeur in the Ordre des Arts et des Lettres of France. He began a five-year term as Distinguished Writer in Residence at Emory University in 2007.[2] In May 2008 he was elected to the American Academy of Arts and Letters. His latest novel is The Enchantress of Florence, published in June 2008.
