Another Cupcake Picture

Cutest Cup Cakes

I made these cute little cupcakes for a friend's daughter's first birthday.

Would you believe I got these sour gummi lollies from the penguin parade at Philip Island (they have a lolly shop in the visitors centre which is GREAT)

they were about $4 a jar and MUCH more economical than the flowers etc from the supermarket. Will be making some more croc ones for another friend's daughter in June (if we don't eat them all by then) one little boy at the party had 3 cupcakes in his bowl - all without the lollies attached LOL

Fundraising Craft Market

Hi All A friend of mine is organising a stall at a local craft market to raise money for a kinder that was affected by the recent bushfires. All proceeds will be going direct to the kinder and we would LOVE any handmade goodies to sell on the day. If you are interested in donating something(s) to the stall please drop me a line. Thanks Steph stephdavy@gmail.com

Sooooooooooooooooo Tired

Why did i think it was a good idea to get a new job this close to christmas!!! luckily its only a 3 day temp assignment and Im one day down already. I actually loved it and being back in an office environment was great every though it took me over an hour to get there this morning!! Damn traffic. Its working down at the shipping docks for a huge shipping company sorting out the backlog of their insurance claims. Went to pick up Bennett tonight from Ama Pa's and he wouldn't let me in the door saying he was having a sleep over - to make life easier for me in the morning (aren't parents great) Bennett has lost his glasses so spending time away from a cross mummy and daddy is probably a good idea :)

Tall Award

I don't believe in horoscopes but I tend to think that most of us definately have traits of the zodiac sign we are born under....

However I can't beleieve how spot on this was..........

What Your Height Says About You

You are a very vulnerable and spiritual person. Your emotions run deep. You have a philosophical and poetic soul. You think things through and are a bit of a skeptic. You tend to be very opinionated. You are a perfectionist with high standards. You prefer to work alone. You work hard, and you don't like interruptions. You are about as tall as the average Swedish man.

I really may have to drag myself inside I've been saying for weeks how much ironing I have to do but I keep putting it off!! I really have to get some done. I have 3 big baskets so far and the line is full so is the drier and the washing machine!!!!!!
