hot cross buns!



I decided that for tonights workshop, we will make hot cross buns! from the supermarket, I am so nervous, it is my first adult workshop, but I know once i get going I will be in my element, I mean I'm going to be claying & talking about claying, so can't be bad! I'm very organised (makes a change).

Our Muntjac was back over the weekend, I'm certain he was sleeping all saturday morning, behind happy shed, as he came out for breakfast at about 8ish, disappeared behind the shed, & then came back out at about 11 o clock, getting a bit brave I think, perhaps he needs reminding whose garden this is!

I have booked Hylands house Guild craft fair for March 8th & 9th this year, looking forward to that, will get to work on Mothers day, fathers day & easter presents!

Todays happy thoughts (see I remembered!) ; Cleaning your house while the children are growing is like shovelling snow while it is still snowing!

you miss 100 % of the shots you don't take!

Visitor in the garden



Well, I was well pleased that I had got up early enough to get to sainsburys early enough to beat the rush ! (if you can call it a rush in Braintree) & just as I was about to leave,..... well I saw it in the garden!


Now I have got used to the squirrells, frogs, mice & even snakes over our first year here in happy house, but I was not prepared for a muntjac, jus wandering around poking its head in the greenery, it even looked right at us humans staring at it, 3 little noses pressed up against the glass in amazement! (that was the 3 children by the way) they loved it, we saw some of these at Centre Parcs last year, so they were well impressed!
no happy thought today, got to get children ready for bed, will do 2 next post!!!
