Busy Week

Sorry I've not posted for a while. I've been having a rather busy week. On Tuesday I went into school to do baking with some Year One children (aged 5-6 years) including my daughter Ellie. It was great fun and the kids really enjoyed it too.

On Monday I decided I would do a dummy run at home so that I wouldn't look like a complete novice when I made them in school with the kids. I had decided we were going to make Teddy Bear Fairy Cakes. Anyway the trial batch I made went down a storm and were all gone by Tuesday evening. So on Wednesday after school I helped Josh to make some more and these are the ones he made. Aren't they fab!

Here's a close up of one of them. I can assure you they tasted as good as they look! Yum!

Not so good though - my Mum isn't feeling well at the moment. It sounds like she has a Flu bug. Not nice! Anyway I re-vamped this card to send to her as I thought it might help cheer her up. Originally it had the vertical ribbon on it, the tree picture which came with some free papers from a magazine and the two sentiments at the bottom from the same set of free papers.
I added the horizontal ribbon, the Tilda and the Prima flowers at the top.
Hope you feel better soon Mum!
