OK, so it turns out that you can now experience 35 seconds of Sunday mass with us right here. All thanks to Finn. I gave him my iphone to keep the peace yesterday at church since his daddy wasn’t there for entertainment. I thought Finnie boy was playing angry birds, scrolling through itunes and maybe taking a few photos but […]
{Keep Reading...}knitting weather
April 9, 2011 By 17 Comments
mornings and evenings are getting cooler here so I’ve been trawling through ravelry trying to find what to make now that knitting weather is approaching. I’m setting myself a rather ambitious goal of making each of my four little ones a cardigan/jumper for winter. I really had to stop myself from ordering enough wool to make […]

Potato what tortilla. I bet that is what you are saying. Or maybe you are saying why does she have another recipe on her blog today. I have to admit that I really am enjoying having a bit more time to cook at the moment. When I first read this recipe, I thought oh cool they […]

After buying THE perfect little black dress yesterday I thought I should find some pretty earrings to wear with it to the funeral this week. But then I saw this and knew that it would be the most perfect little bracelet to wear. It didn’t cost much but is so sweet and special with the little eiffel tower. My mum […]

I know I’m probably preaching to the converted here, but knitting and craft in general can be so good for the soul. I decided to take a new knitting book, Retro Babes by Patons, to the hospital last Sunday with a ball of wool and some needles. It helped to pass the time when we had to […]

These days I never seem to have enough time for baking but it really is one of my loves. It makes me happy and also makes a perfect gift. And so I thought it would be lovely to give my Dad a homemade quiche and salad kit for his dinner this week. I decided to pull out […]
