I made this

Could this be a basis for a new business, making architectural cakes? 

I'm not really sure there is a market for it, but there is certainly enjoyment.

This gingerbread house is a replica of a traditional long house in the old town, Hanoi, Vietnam.  

The house, it's simplicity, form & function really took my eye, and I thought an edible tribute was fitting.  More photos available here...

 

 

 

 

cards!!

Today my cards arrived and I'm pretty impressed with the printing with veg dyes on recycled card from Print Together

posting heaps on etsy

Bolero

A new favourite word - Bolero!  I found this little red number, in great condition, at a secondhand store. It needed a little embellishing I thought, so added this embroidered design.

I will be listing this for sale on Etsy shortly.

The Weekend is for Breakfast

 

Like so many others, I do love a big, tasty breakfast on the weekend, and taking the time to enjoy it.

This day I felt like a creamy omelet but without the cream.

Instead I made a souffle omelet.  I little workout first thing in the morning whipping up the whites, but it only increased my appetite!

Whip up the whites and yolks seperately.

Slide into the pan

  A sprinkle of cheese and under the grill...

Maybe a little overdone on the bottom.

  Now eat!

Working hard for a living

Whilst I'm without a day job, I have been putting my time into getting the odd crafty job done.

Here's what I've been up to:

Some needlework to dress up this little cardigan.

 

Some tasty treats whipped up in the processor - possibly for future sale on Etsy?

 

A project from the past - soon to be for sale on Etsy

Here are a few other items also for sale soon:

At last, I've uploaded some pockets on Etsy:
