A couple of weeks ago my hubby Steve celebrated his birthday. It wasn't just any birthday it was the big 4-0! And like any good birthday celebrations, there was cake. Not just any cake either, Red Velvet Cake (his favourite). I had been toying with the idea of making an 'Anti Gravity Cake' for a while now, but as you can see.. it is not exactly the type of cake you just whip up and serve for afternoon tea. So thanks to Steve, I now had the perfect excuse occasion for which … [Read more...]
Under the Sea ~ Paper Plate Crafts
Winter is here and the school holidays are upon us once again.

Search for it on Pinterest and you will come up with chocolate bark for every occasion. The only real limit is your imagination. I thought it would be neat to make some chocolate bark for Mother's Day, after all … [Read more...]
Mother’s Day Gift Tags – FREE Printable
Yay, Mother's Day is just around the corner, like literally around the corner, only four more sleeps (if your counting)! And yes (!) I am counting. I am excited about the fact that this year I get to celebrate the day as a Mummy of two gorgeous babies. Mother's Day the day to treat your Mum; show her how much you care and how much she truly means to you. With two littlies in the house this year, getting out to the shops is a bit of a monumental task in-between feed time, sleep time, … [Read more...]
