My flowers are blooming and my owl mug has arrived in time for the Christmas holidays - I love this time of the year!




We are having a Chilli plant growing competition with some friends. We are feeding ours with worm juice and they aren't.
We think worm juice is the ultimate plant growing stuff, whereas they aren't convinced by it.
Only time will tell.

This is what 100m of homemade bunting looks like - all ready and waiting for our wedding.

treasure hunt


Im forever on the search for the perfect earring. These are amazing, but where, oh where can I buy them from??
I think some long hours (hopefully minutes) of internet trawling may be ahead…






The owl thing certainly isn't anything new, but its still hard to resist the little guys when they pop up as cute things like these cups. My afternoon cup of green tea would taste so much better in one of these :)

The Edmonds recipe challenge #6 – Pikelets.

Pikelets topped with whipped cream and strawberries - perfect on an overcast Sunday afternoon.
When it comes to making Pikelets I always find that the first few come out fairly average and then get better and better as I continue. Does this happen to you? Whats the secret to making perfect Pikelets from the start?
