I’ve seen mentions of the “Fairy Hobmother” from Appliances Online before, but hadn’t really paid attention until I recieved an email after commenting on Becs blog post about stroopwafels. She was sent a voucher for Amazon and bought a stroopwafel…
I feel a bit embarrassed calling this a recipe. Its honestly the easiest thing to make, I actually had all these things in my cupboards (which considering how bare they were, was amazing) Since seeing this recipe for cinnamon sugar pull-apart bread,…
Good ol’Shrove Tuesday*. Every year, I used to have to phone my mum on this Tuesday night, get her to tell me how to make pancakes, and then somehow I’d manage to cock them up, but still end up with…
We’ve had a bit of a re-arrange in the house (the boy did this while I went home, but I’ve only just finished sorting out everything in all rooms except his office. Its too scary.) and its meant that I…
I know that quite a few of you guys are relatively local to me, so thought I would share this event because I can’t go! Colston Hall is holding a gift fair on both this Saturday and next to showcase…

For my second cross stitch project, I decided to do something a bit different to your usual flowers and puppies patterns. (I’m sure that they are very nice, but they’re just not me!) This image is of one of my…
My friend Nathan is one of the bravest people I know. I mean, he kinda has to be considering his job (he is a lieutenant in the Navy) and who he is married to (ha! I love you Loulou, but…
As previously mentioned, my friends Louise and Nathan are getting married soon on the SS Great Britain, and their wedding has a slight theme of a coronation party. The only problem was that they weren’t sure what could be hung…
