Canvasy

Meant to post this agesss ago! Its a canvas I painted with the words from a picture I also saw ages ago alsooo :)

Its one of those things that when you read, the little things just fade away, and you don't worry about them for a while :) Soo, as an over-worry-about-little-things-er, its going to find a place on my wall & remind me of more important things.. (hopefully).

Little trip along le moors..

        
     Its been so windy, the leaves were all dry & made the most amazing noise crinkling in the wind, they should record it for relaxy tracks like the with the sea :)

I love the light this time of yearr :) When its just getting into the evening and shines through the trees looking all vintagey.

I can't believe how long its taken me to appreciate the prettyness of places like this..

Innocent hats!

Okay so I think I've given up on the weekly idea already ;)

I knitted my first hat for The big knit yesterday, it's such an amzing idea! Innocent started this in 2003 (I can't believe I didn't hear of it before :P), they ask people to knit hats for thier smoothie bottles, and each smoothie sold with a hat on raises 25p for Age UK. You can read all about it here .



& they are also kinda comfy to wear on your ear ;)

This was my first attempt, its not
supposed to go on this kind of smoothie
which is why it doesn't fit!

They will be sold in Sainsburys and Boots in November time :)

Ramblings of this week :) Blondiess, Bunting & Pancake rubberss

Have decided to start a new way of posting & collect some thoughts from each week and post them here :) So here is this weeks!


Cake making a go gooo



Blondiesssss ;)

  I 'helped' make these! (By that I mean mum measured out all the ingredients & I mixed it up ;)). They are brownies but made with white chocolate, hense.. blondies :) We have been trying out some recipies as I have wanted to sell some on market stalls for a while and have booked the first one for next Saturday now, which I'm looking forward to, weather I will be well enough to go is another thing but y'know. Here is the recipe:

Ingredients

• 100g of Butter
• 150g of Whilte cooking chocolate
• 100g of Self raising flour
• 200g of Sugar
• 3 Eggs
• We also used hazelnuts (just put in as much as looked right), but you can leave them plain or use walnuts etcc

Beat the eggs together then mix in the sugar and flour.
Gently melt together the butter and chocolate, let cool slightly and add to the egg mixture.
Pour into a 6x8" oiled and lined baking dish.
Bake in a preheated oven (at 180 degrees/Gas mark 4) for 30 to 35 mins.
Let cool in the tin for 10 minutes or so, then cut into peices :)

This was an idea I got from my friend who is a bunting genious & had some up in her garden, and I loved how something so simple can make such a difference to the space you're in! So I made some :) There are 3 rows of it up now, all different colours. Its quite simple to make as its triangles of felt (I cut them out with pinking sheers), threaded onto some emboidery thread. The tricky bit is working out how long you need it and hanging it up so its looks right, hehe. 



Its blurry, but I like the way it looks like its waving :)
