were on the move........

It doesnt seem like it was five miniutes ago that we moved out of our two bed semi into a three storey town house......

ideal as the inside space is for our family of five there is only a small decked courtyard at the back and my boys are craving grass and outdoor space....

and so last night ew looked at a converted three bedroomed bungalow, with LARGE garden and outbuildings........so were on the move again....not until September as the current owners need to find something.......but thats the beauty of renting ....were in no rush and can go as soon as they give the nod.......

Only one thing........

My new large beautiful.....georgous.....lovely....dresser wont fit in ANYWHERE..........

So if anyone would like to give the wonderful peice a new home then please give me a shout for more details pics etc......

thanks

Marshmallow Icing

I have today had an experiment with the idea of Marshmallow Icing.....

Its ok, but I have to say I dont think that you can been good old icing sugar and water or butter....

I have found it very very sticky and also that the marshmallows only need a second or two in the hot oven to melt otherwise you get a bitter burtn taste to them......

Ok, but unless I have done something silly and wrong I dont know that I'll bother to try this one again.....

Have a fab weekend what ever you choose to do....

Welcome Easter

Well it may feel more like November that March outside but that is not the case on my kitchen table.

You may remember last year we recycled our potted christmas tree into our easter tree but unfortunatly he did not survive our house move last summer and so today I tripped off to find a replacement.

What do you think ???

Today has been the first day that I have had a few hours child free since January and so 'PUHH' to the house work, I tripped into town with one thing in mind ................EASTER..................

As well as some lovely thrifty finds, for our upcoming camping trip to Cornwall, I also found two lovely hyasynth (not sure how to spell that one) bulbs for Harrison class teachers as easter gifts....

and also some bits and bobs to get creative with for Harrison to take to his friends....

all they need now is a chocolate egg for a centre and there finished.....

Wishing you all a very HAPPY EASTER whatever you choose to do and wait to see you again next week with our application for weight watchers !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!   xxxx

the lady uses marshmallows as a form of icing ontop of fairy cakes.....

does any know what to do??? is it just a case of popping a large marshmallow ontop of a cooked cake and popping it ino the oven for a few mins.......looks far easier than butter icing !!!!!!

im sure this little man would love some marshmallow topped fairy cakes....and mummy too....
