Toy story 3!

Had to tell you all how FANTASTICAL toy story 3 was! I saw it last night and loved it - much better than 1 and 2! I wont give anything away so if you get the chance to go, do it!

blackberry tart

Step one - go swimming at the local school pool with your sister and nephews, get very warm pushing the buggy up hill and spot blackberries! Decide on the way back to pick them! (btw swimming was very very very fun)
Step 2 return to sisters house and get the pastry ready, wash the blackberries, and some pears and sugar, sneak a little bit of dark chocolate in.

Step 3 - bake
Step 4 - eat

Alternatively if you would like the proper recipe, head over to my sisters blog - Clobelle

Cakes!!

I firstly would like to apologise for the pictures - I made these late tonight and there was no light! I was attempting to make the cakes like the ones you get in the overpriced coffee shops!! I think my muffin tray is a little small and perhaps them on a bigger scale will work better - however I still love them!!

Sandcastles

A few more from holiday - this was all on whitesands beach in wales!

Sorry only a short postagain, not feeling so good and very tired!!

A very quick update of some of the sock creations from today!

Sock owl

Hello I'm a brand new sock owl!! I have a slightly wonky eye and am made from a well worn(clean) sock and should have been made from a new sock I think but oh well it adds character I say!!

I was searching blog land and folksy shops and some how got to this tutorial
and I had to make a little owl!! It is 11pm now so perhaps not the best time to be sewing but when you have to do something it has to be done!!!

I am off tomorrow to buy more socks now so expect more owl related posts!!
