My little freak...

Hours of entertainment so far today, purely from 'wearing his pants
high'!

This week's read is...

...Stieg Larsson's, The Girl Who Played With Fire. I'm 20 pages in and
it's already got me intrigued!

Things to do this Summer…



[apart from entertaining George and thoroughly enjoying his company]

* Sort the filing drawer (shred or file – those are the ONLY options – no ‘undecideds’ allowed)

* Delete the hard drive of the old pc and take it to the tip

* Tidy and clean studio

* Sort the shoe/coat situation in the study – it is beyond irritating now…can shoes breed????

* Scan old photos to send to be printed for my brother’s bday pressie (Sep 2 – which seems aways away but it’s a big ole box of photographs!)

* EXERCISE – specifically, Mission Bingo Wing Destruction!!!

...and that doesn't include my DBD to do's!

What are you up to - other than finding ways to keep children entertained whilst the British Summer behaves badly?

bookworm

I am currently reading Jojo Moyes' The Peacock Emporium and it is
jolly good company of an evening!
(as proven by the fact that I'm about to start chapter 11, p150, on
only my 3rd evening of reading it)
Ooo and I must confess to buying this book because of it's cover and
title & TOTALLY misjudging the subject matter but is was a happy
accident.
Ta ta for now

Kebabs

George nearly fainted with delight when I suggested making kebabs with
his marshmallows, some strawberries & grapes.
When I then mentioned the possibility of dribbling melted chocolate
over them, he was in raptures!

update - pictures of George making the yummy kebabs...







so chuffed with himself!

a match made in heaven?

Teeny designs handpainted onto cream fabric...then embroidered and
bedecked with beads, buttons & a bit of jammy glaze on the cake.
A mixture of brooches & hair clips (the princess & the handbag are
awaiting clips but I couldn't wait to take pics).
Painting + sewing = match made in heaven
Would love to know what you think...please comment :)
