I love World Book day so much. Making is obviously my thing and so I know that I don't get the feeling of dread that fills some parents (for me that will happen with any maths/science/sport related school projects that require help!) but I just think its so wonderful the way that the children all get so enthusiastic about what character they are and what they'll be wearing for that part.

We make shortbread lots - most people love it so its a pretty safe bet for playdate treats and gifts, and because it uses so few ingredients I generally always have them to hand to make a quick batch.

Happy New Year! I know it can be a bit of a cliche but I love the start of a new year, I love looking back over the last year and planning lovely things for the future. I think I'm going to do a separate post about all my hopes for this new year, but for now I thought I'd just take a liitle look back over our Christmas.

There is nothing I like more in the autumn then coming in from a windy walk and indulging in a hot tea with a wedge of cake. This cinnamon cake is light as a feather and super comforting in these colder months. The recipe also happens to be really simple with few ingredients, so its easy to whip one up for last minute for guests or cake hungry tummies!

So, my sister's wedding was nearly a whole month ago now. I'm not sure I could write up a post which would do such a lovely day justice really, so I'll just stick to explaining a few photos. I didn't actually take that many what with being so involved in the whole day - I'm itching to see the official ones! But also I do sometimes think that the adage is true that when you're having a really good time you don't stop to take pictures.

It's such a cliche but a cup of tea solves everything doesn't it?! I've been trying to eat a little more healthily lately and so I've been trying to make tea my treat in the daytime, rather than doughnuts or some other deliciously sweet and sugary snack.
