Conveyor Belt Of Cake & Cards

 Pass me my teeth, I'll bite you - George Burns
September 
Welcome to a busy September.
Making lots of cake, and cards.....
& going back to work.....

1: Back to work in the rain... 
2: 14th Wedding Anniversay 🎈🎈
3: Visited Stratford Upon Avon
4: Entered some bakes into the Studley Flower Show.
I didn't win best in show, However my bakes made £56 for local charities, and I bought back my own Biscoff cake for £21!
5: A Birthday card 🎈
6: We held a meeting for the Community Groups    in Studley.I made some cake for the event.

7: We said farewell to a good friend.
(It didn't help when one person asked one of the family for Eldon's snooker cue!)
8: 6th Birthday Card made 🎈
9: Made cupcakes and a 50th Birthday card for a         good friend 🎈
10: The Council had to put on an Extra Ordinary Meeting about the problems at the Graveyard. I opened the kitchen to promote our Warm Hub. The Councillors (including me) were shouted at for an hour, and one person commented "We all should be lined up against the wall and shot!"
11:We were invited to a Birthday party. I cut some moves on the dance floor. Then I realised my  shoe laces lit up in the dark!
12: I made a card for someone going away on             holiday.
13:I made all the cake for the Library's        Afternoon  Tea. Hubby took the afternoon off  work to help serve the teas and coffee. He really enjoyed himself!
14: More cake to enter in?
 15: The Warm Hub is back next month....
Move baking fun next month as well!

Filling In The Gaps!

 My last credit card bill was so big, before I opened it I actually heard a drum roll - Rita Rudner
Hi all 👍
Just a quick update from the last one I did 4 weeks ago...💥
I broke up for the Summer Holiday from my lollipop job 🍭
I had some nice cards,presents and words from the parents and children.
I wore hubby out on his week off from work ...↓
We visited Evesham, Stratford upon Avon, and Kidderminster↓
For the rest of the time off,
It involves:
  1. Baking
  2. Blogging (only 6 more weeks of blog posts to write)
  3. Booking a holiday to Las Vegas for the next school holiday 
  4. Getting back to using my sewing machine(s)....
  5. Sequinned outfits will have to be worn too 😎
I have published two weeks of May.
Just as we went to Blackpool for Whitsun.
We didn't bump into Russ Abbot while we were there....↓
(Hubby's late dad was there in Blackpool when they were filming the TV series September Song which was released in 1993↓)
Hopefully the blog will be updated by the time I get back to work.....🙏

Nice to see some car drivers trying to take me out on the big island.
Another set of traffic lights appeared.

Liquid lunch time.
Then time to do the afternoon shift.
I have a red car trying to move me out of the way on the traffic island, tried to speed up past me, I was going a steady 35 in a 40 limit.
He put his foot down up the hill, and forgot about the Speed van at the top of the hill.
He put his brake lights too late love, expect the letter in two weeks!
Gets to work.
Gets on my winter coat, winter hat. Turned on my lights, then walked down to see in the Charity shop. Got some nice things. Turned on my lights on the way up.
