1/52

First week of 2011 and what we've been up to:

I start baking pastry for breakfast. Such a nice change from porridge oats! It wouldn't have happened if it wasn't for this talented Mama Chef- she inspired me with her snail rolls recipe. Thank you, Cate!




C. bakes chocolate mint cookies. Yummy!



I hand dye yarn for the very first time. It's fun!



G. turns two. I can't believe it.



My new lens arrives. I'm in love with it.



New bread maker arrives too. We're so excited. I guess new year will be all about home baking and cooking.



Happy weekend Everyone!

  3. Thanks for the snail link, I have been thinking about how to make these, they are my daughters favourites so I want to make them when she visits from England, thought I could use croissant dough instead of the pastry.
