latent talents

It is amazing what talents Alex has discovered he has in his 70s! When I was sick he taught himself to cook and now absolutely LOVES cooking. He has recently redecorated his bedroom and put up new curtains. The room looks lovely but alas the curtains were too long, so, knowing his wife (me) didn't sew, he set to and turned them up himself! And did an excellent job. So he's adding sewing to his list of late accomplishments. What will be next I wonder?
