February is Birthday Bonanza month over at Creative Collective, and this week the girls are asking: Do you have any family traditions? Do you have a favorite birthday that stands out in your mind? Do you have any birthday horror stories? Are you planning any big birthdays this year? I like to stretch my own [...]
If you follow me on instagram, twitter, tumblr or flickr you’ll know I’m participating in Fat Mum Slim’s Photo a Day this month year. We’ve just completed January, so here’s a wrap up of all my photos! If you want to participate in the February Photo a Day, head on over to Chantelle’s blog for [...]
Yesterday I felt bored and unsettled, unproductive and lazy. Yuk. I knew the only way the remedy the situation was to make a list of things to do, get off my butt and do them. So I re-potted a plant, I baked some brownies, sewed some nappy boosters, and started making headbands for next weekends [...]
Over at Creative Collective the lovely ladies are asking us to show our highlights from January. “What was it that really got you excited this month? What inspired you? Did you start anything creative? Have you got any creative goals for February?” My answer is, a dangerous new hobby. Scrap booking. *cue dun dun dun [...]

Over the weekend I found my pink camera (as seen in my profile photo to the right)! Hurrah! It had been hiding for many months in the study, in my “postage items” box, of all places. My Point and Shoot this week is of my blue eyed boys being cute (and neither looking at the [...]
Last weekend I invited some of my favourite people over to have an afternoon of playing ladies and a bit of crafting. I made scones and brownies, and put out Tim-Tams and Shortbread Creams, and had about 10 different varieties of Tea to choose from. We sat and chatted and played with the babies (Beck [...]
As part of the Creative Collective {link love} this week, the girls are asking us to pay it forward and share whose blogs we go to for inspiration. Well, Allison Waken is going to think I’m obsessed with her! I’ve been raving just a little bit about her site lately on Instagram, because of something [...]
