let them eat cake!

Monday, March 22nd, 2010

you know you can never go wrong with cake, can you!?

no, you can’t,

ever get it wrong,

however many you ‘have’ to try!

I would like to point out that these were all tasted/tried in the name of work, good god, it’s a hard life sometimes, that and ice-cream!

So that is why I’m currently not around so much, almost working full-time, so less time for blogging, twitter and sewing : ( But I do get to eat cake!

Today was quite nice really, weekends for us are always difficult, the boys are together for longer than normal, and well it can be tricky. Though this morning William made me play his ’strategy’ game,

I think the main idea behind this game, was that no one would understand it and so therefore he would win! Saying that, he really had made lots of effort designing the characters/actions etc, but had then not really worked out how you would play it!
Maybe tomorrow I will see if I can beat him!

No, that is not a siren! That is me, very very excited, because of this!!

Whoooooooo! Is that enough whoooing yet? : )

Want to see more, then go and have a look at this : ) And you can buy them here.

I simply cannot add any more to that, other than I’m now also listening to Bishop Allen, all rather lovely and wonderful : )

I have thought long and hard on new brooch/corsage ideas and have found it hard to come up with something different yet similar, interesting but not overwhelming, and finally simple yet pleasing, and now I’m happy with it.

I still have another six to make up in various different colours, and when they are all made, they will get listed somewhere, Etsy or NOTHS. I had wanted to get them done in time for Mothers Day, hahahahah, er yes, not much chance of that really.

Very busy here, lots of work at the farm, lots of stuff for Handm@de Winchester, and lots of stuff for Edward and school, this week he is seeing a Speech and Language Therapist, as he uses inappropriate language, and I would really like someone to explain what that really means!

Got carried away earlier and left a comment on the BBC news website about school places, oh well!

Also I seem to have become re-born to listen to music and see live music, couple of weeks ago we saw White Rabbits and Spoon, they were amazing, write-up here by my lovely one, and over the next few months I will be going to see Why?, Band of Horses, Built to Spill and I will be going to see Pavement at ATP in May, whooooooooo! Seeing Spoon made me feel like a teenager again, first time I have seen a band live since my teens that I have know all the songs! It was great!!

Hopefully more sewing soon, getting lighter in the evenings, makes me feel better : )
