There is just something so appealing about spaniels - I still miss ours, 16 years on!!
Bilingual
I'm now fluent in Spanielese. Translation: Get off your backside and take me for a walk. Pretty please?
Lots of fabulous ideas - I may have to steal some of them!!
Present ideas......
The end of another busy week...lots of Birthdays in our 'neck of the woods' at the moment so I have had my creative hat on...what do you think of the results??? First up a present for one of Taylor's friends turning "sweet 16"....I put together a fun and yummy collection of treats for an ice ...
Fabulous!!
Just added to my ETSY store.....
I have been in craft heaven for the last few days putting the finishing touches to my cake flags and bunting before I added them to my JustLikeMartha store over at Etsy....its no secret I LOVE LOVE vintage doilies so its no surprise that some of them have ended up as cake flags and bunting LOL. ...
I bought a magazine through the week which had cakestands made from old cake tins, rather than old plates. It's in the other room and I am too lazy to fetch it - I'll try to remember to give you the details tomorrow! I have just read an email from Typepad (which arrived the other day, I am lagging behind after the holiday) which mentioned that there has been a major spam problem and in fixing it genuine comments have been spammed. Hopefully all will be well now.
The week that was...
Or the week that wasn't, blogging-wise. One word sums it up really. Ofsted. In other news: Crow has buggered off with a crowy mate. Good news I suppose, but the garden isn't the same without him. The two of them knock about occasionally and make a lot of noise. I don't know if he'll be ba...

It looks wonderful - and you have reminded me that Malcolm has still to take me for a posh afternoon tea for my birthday (which was in October!!).
No such thing as a free lunch
But there is such a thing as a free tea. Four of us (the mister, the now rent arrears free Aunty M, a family friend and yours truly) had ours yesterday, courtesy of the Boy's Christmas present to us all. If you've been visiting here a while, you'll know that I'm rather partial to a proper aft...

This months Dolly magazine.....
Its finally here....the June issue of Dolly magazine...starring Lilly! Well not quite starring LOL but she is 'in' the magazine, an entire page. She had such fun modelling and the team at Dolly were amazing, what a great memory she now has to treasure... Wish I was a few years younger to wear...
Yum yum, but I will have to say no to a slice, I have eaten so much cake over the last 3 weeks!!
Clafoutis...
I don't know what happened to the sunshine, it just disappeared overnight and left us with rain for the last few days. Heavy rain and high winds. Groundhog weather. The fire has been lit and scarves have been pressed back into service. Only the weeds are growing in the garden. Them and the...
