https://dwellingbird.wordpress.com/2014/12

Family, life and crafting. December 14, 2014. I absolutely L O V E Christmas but I absolutely hate wrapping presents. If i could get out of it I would but with a 4 year old and a 4 month old it doesn’t look like this chore will be reducing, lets be honest in the next couple of years it is likely to be increasing, humph. The answer is a big fat YES. The ink was new as well and they are Versacolor mini cubes, the gold I used with this parcel is very rich and sharp, well you can see for yourself of course!

Family, life and crafting. A little bit of baking. October 25, 2014. Well I may not have been up to much crafting recently but I have been cooking and I was very chuffed with my most recent effort at baking, not only did it taste good it also looked good AND I was able to do quite a bit with my three year old son. Again from the Goodfood magazine, I think I should get commission from them right? I am going to try it with peaches next time as I think they would make it that bit sweeter. October 23, 2014.

The cherry on the icing (yes there is more! Well I ma...

Family, life and crafting. My stork has arrived! August 22, 2014. I have been a little quiet lately for a very good reason…. please meet the new addition to our family. Well what can I say? We are sleep deprived but very happy.
