HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY!

Hope you are being spoilt! I know I am!

this week I am grateful for....

Little Hands - Master N had his second day at Daycare this week and very proudly presented me with this gorgeous poem for Mother's Day - yes it bought tears to my eyes. All he kept saying was 'hands stuck' he is not so good with sticky stuff on his little hands!


Unexpected Mail - especially when it is chocolate! Thanks Sister xo


Cups of Tea - and having five minutes to enjoy a hot one.

[Spring Green Floral Zippered Pouch by Andrea Creates]

You might remember here I confessed my love for the little Etsy Store - Andrea Creates. I am also an avid reader of Andrea's Blog which is always full of pretty things.

I was delighted when this morning I read that Andrea had hit 100 sales in her little Etsy Store and is celebrating by having a giveaway and offering a very generous discount for any items purchased from her little store.

For all the details check out Andrea's Blog here.

Congratulations Andrea!

yes it does....

Creative Collective Link Love

Here is my first project for the Creative Collective In the Hoop Project. I first spotted this embroidery pattern on Pinterest and after a little bit of investigating I came across it on the Wild Olive Blog.


I enjoyed stitching this cute pattern. The colours were bright and I do like a bit of relaxing time with the needle and thread!

Have you started your In the Hoop project? Why not share what you are up to and join in with the Creative Collective's Link Love.......

quick three :: chocolate

Chocolate - oh how I love thee but it seems only when I am breastfeeding do I just HAVE to have it ALL the time..... strange huh!

So my favourite three chocolates of choice - in no particular order....

Cherry Ripe - I love a cherry ripe, anytime - day or night!

Fruit & Nut - This is a fairly new favourit of mine, I am partial to chocolate sulatanas too but this just has the added bonus of the nuts!

Whittakers Toasted Coconut Slab - One word - YUM! That is all I need to say!
