Halloween

Well as you can all imagine I didn't expect to be around for this Halloween but a certain mini Curran wasn't playing ball so here I was not ready for Halloween at all with no decorations or anything up!! I flew to Lidl earlier and picked up some goodies for the kiddies and that was about the height if it. Check out the little outfit I had all ready for its debut...... Oh well....





...don't think these booties are gonna be needed either!!! :)

Working on some letters...

Ive been busy all day...I had some letters to do....I just wanted them to be done and ready in case little baba Curran decided to make an early appearance...No such luck tho!! Have a look and see which is your favourite :)

M for Marisa.....

L for Laura...

U for Una....

A for Alison....

Thanks Nicola :)

Oh have I just not got the kindest friends ever? Look at what Nicola brought me this afternoon when she came to visit....she just knows me tooo well!! I cant wait to try out a few new recipes and send them into work for her to try out! :)

Afternoon tea for some friends

I'm having some friends over for a cuppa and a chat this afternoon so I baked up a few goodies for them....its also a great chance to showcase my fab new cake platter :) So we know I'm a sucker for pretty Tupperware but I actually seem to be moving on to cake platters and cupcake stands!! I now have three different cupcake stands and god only knows how many cake platters but in my defence....how often do I bake so they are a total necessity right??!!

Hey what do you think of my mini sponge cake bites?? I gotta hide them from Gareth I reckon!! :)

Another birthday cake....

So I had an order for a birthday cake, this time a 30th birthday cake for a guy called David.....his wife gave me no direction apart from the number 30 so I could do what I wanted really. Sometimes this can be a good thing and a bad thing.....I got thinking. OK guys like cars......maybe a race track with spectators standing in the grass....this is how it turned out...

...a close up of the track...

......on stand-by......an ambulance, a police car and a fire truck.....

...and the little spectators having a good look...I coloured some sugar yellow and stuck it to some yellow icing to give the impression of sand...there is sand at a race track right??!!

Thank you cards

So I have been busy making some thank you cards for my wonderful friends and family that came and spoilt me at my Baby Shower. Just another project to pass some more days during these last few weeks that seem to be dragging along!! :)

A pressie for Melody

Last month I went to Melodys baby shower........we had such a lovely afternoon chatting and eating goodies. I made her this little picture for her nursery which she has just done up so beautifully. She knows she is having a little boy and we are just dying to meet him ........not too long now Mel!! x
