Us girls have been cropping for 18 months and we are definatly scrapping buddies now. We celebrated Ali's birthday with cake, cake and more cake, with the odd sausage roll thrown in. Honest we are so bad at this healthy eating lark, its just chocolate and more chocolate!
Received good post today in the guise of new stamps from Ebay. I bought some cooking stamps by KI Memories. I am so chuffed with them. I still have one of those BG lunch tins i bought ages ago and want to make a recipe file tin, and these stamps are going to be just the ticket!! I want my girls to be using my recipes when i am old and grey, cards covered in chocolate and butter with memories of baking with mummy in the kitchen, ooo i can smell the chocolate cupcakes now..................................
As well as good post, i received good emails today from my favourite Australian magazine. Scrapbook Memories have asked for 2 of my layouts for their gallery and I am so made up!!!!!Honestly this has made me giddy with excitement. And to top it all off, just had a phone call form Annie with some amazing news of a sponsor for Pencil Lines!!!!! OMG its is amazing, the most talked about company right now, and i have to keep my lips sealed!!!
Peter also has some great news, but that too has to be kept under wraps as well, he has a job interview next week, please keep your fingers and toes crossed and send lots of positive vibes our way please.
Lilly is much better and is at preschool today dosed with medicine and has a little spring in her step. I am expecting her to crash on the sofa when she gets home this afternoon!
