Sponsored by Nuffnang &Viva Ahhhhh, cleaning. One of the many home duties I am supposed to be on top of. But anyone with children at home knows how busy they keep you. Or how many distractions you can find before you get to the cleaning. And if you’d asked me a few weeks ago how […]
{Keep Reading...}my first pinwheel
May 30, 2011 By 12 Comments
Well my housework has been neglected for a few days and the washing pile is out of control – pile because the basket is overflowing and it’s raining so I have to work with how fast my dryer can do a load. Oh and you can hardly enter my craft room either since it’s full of market stuff. So it’s the perfect time to […]
{Keep Reading...}i love markets
May 29, 2011 By 10 Comments
I really love doing markets. I never love them at 10.36pm the night before when a baby doesn’t want to sleep or dishes need to be done, clothes need to be laid out, instructions need to be written, tablecloths aren’t out or I think I need to take more fabric.

Another day, another cake. I had a packet of cream cheese in the fridge that was crying out to be baked into something. Or maybe the truth was that I was feeling a little grumpy with a cold and had nothing for morning tea. I searched the internet for a sponge cake baked with cream […]

After sending keira off to school with 22 cupcakes, I realised that I didn’t have enough butter left to make another cake for the family that night! Mini crisis! Elodie was overtired and crying, the twins still hadn’t had lunch, I couldn’t face a quick trip to the shops for butter and there really was no butter left […]

Sponsored by Nuffnang If you asked Keira to describe a perfect afternoon I am pretty sure it would include fairy floss, face painting, a merry go round and a petting zoo too. Oh and a happy meal to round out the afternoon with Goldilocks and one of the three bears walking past to say hi. And […]

Sponsored by Nuffnang Westfield are quickly becoming my favourite sponsor. I mean life is tough when you have to head to Westfield without the kids for a day of shopping!

{Keep Reading...}cat’s big adventure
May 22, 2011 By 15 Comments
Mishka, the latest addition to our family, is an indoors cat. But when I woke up this morning she wasn’t following me downstairs and I spent a good half hour searching the house and outside for her. I couldn’t figure out how she would have escaped and did the whole shake the cat biscuit box/ […]
