Bits and Pieces..
Doesn’t the time just fly? How is it a new week already, what happen to last week. What have I been up to? Well, the norm, school, cooking..I tried my hand at some homemade pasties, nice! I got the recipe from one of my favourite recipe books.
We went to a bush dance on Sat. night, or should I say the girls and I did. Jared took the boys up to Rochester to preach, so they had a boys night. They had a great time,of male bonding, ice cream eating, and wrestling in the motel room. Meanwhile, Cassandra was trying her hand at bush dancing.
Check this out, we know a boy called Caleb, he is like a mini Steve Irwin. He made a bed up in a tree at his parents house, and actually slept in it. Anyone driving past would have had either a fright or a laugh.
On Sunday a friend showed Steph and I what you can do with crochet, she is so talented. I fell in love with this carrot, and she gave it to me. 😀
It is a little purse, cute eh?
Today the Girl’s Brigade had a twin/triplet night. Alycia wanted some matching skirts desperatly, so while she was with Jared at college, Steph and I made three skirts. They are simple tiered skirts, made in a hurry…Steph and I did every mistake in the book, and some not in the book, argh! From a distance they look ok..sort of. The smaller one is for Cassandra, but Alycia wore it so Ellie our neighbour could go too. Alycia actually fit into Cassandra’s skirt!
And just because I thought it was cute…
Thanks for showing the cover of the cook book – I didn’t realise there were even 4 now! I have the first 3… and we had porcupine meatballs from it last night LOL I’ll have to keep an eye out for no’s 4 & 5
There are five now! Good cook books aren’t they? Hope all is well
