May The Force Be With You...

Now to enjoy this Saturday...
(Had a quick play with Gear Stick)
Made the most of the free parking in Bromsgrove.
Great money box I found in one charity shop
A Lovely pair of shoes as well
(Pity they wasn't a size 12 to fit my feet!)
 Anyone fancy a cookie?
 What better way on a Saturday night than to watch the first film of the Star Wars Saga.....

Pigs In Mud!!

It's finally arrived!
Last day of school and work for me \o/
My "Pigs in Mud" cake was took up to the Town Hall
For the "Redditch Bake Off" competition.
 
 
Ready to be judged.
Later on,
We went back to take part in the Mayor's Quiz Night.
Our team name was "Handcuffs & Babyoil"
There was still some of my cake actually left after the bake sale...
(£150 was raised in the Bake Sale for  Charity)
 One of my son's finished it off during the quiz.
My film and music knowledge saved us from getting the wooden spoon!
Now to enjoy the flowers my hubby bought me!

Rolling Out The Pink Fondant...

So much to do, so little time to get it all done!
I move the cake making crap to one side.
Now the card making crap comes out...
 I know I'm a perfectionist, but after 2 hours,
I only got 4 Xmas cards made!!!!
 
 
Now to get the top of the cake done...
Plenty of playing with pink fondant going on late into the night!!
Lots of swears as well!!!
Grand unveiling tomorrow....

Playing With Chocolate....

Welcome to my Hump of The Week.
3 days to go until school and I break up for Christmas \o/
Now the Scout cake has finished.
Now for the cake for Redditch Bake Off to be completed in 2 days!
Had a quick play Kenny the Kenwood.
 The melted chocolate was added once the cake had cooled down.
Then the kit kats were added...
Time for some fresh air 
and to observe the bright moon.
 
I'm going to have more fun fun tomorrow with cake and Xmas cards.....

Fancy A Bit...?

After finishing the Scout Cake yesterday.
 It was time for a quick play with my Henry.
Dining room nice and tidy for the second cake to be made for Friday.
Once that cake is made.
Put away the boxes of cake decorating crap.
In their place, the boxes of card making crap.
This year's Christmas cards got to be made.
I got soaked doing part 2 of Job 1.
One car driver had the nerve to park on the zig zags.
I went over to remind him not to park on them.
The parents in front of me, moved out of the way,
Like parting of the Red Sea.
After I told the car driver,
He thought about what I said, and drove off.
At least everyone at Scouts liked my cake 
At the Scouts Christmas Party :)

Patter Cake,Patter Cake....

Back on the final week on the wobbly work wheel
I had a nice dark start for my Job 1
 Parents still parking on the Zig Zags.
 Now to make the Scouts cake...
Play with a bit of fondant..
Getting there..
Finally finished!
It's called "Cheeky Scouts "
(They are wearing sunglasses
After being in the cold,their noses have turned blue..
They are sticking their tongues out....)

That Would Look Nice In My Kitchen!

We visited Solihull to pick up a Xmas present.
Looked around the store... 
(Might as well!)
Nice phone!
 
I am being stalked.....
 Was so tempted to get another Fridge Freezer for Christmas...↓↓
More like my price range↓↓
There was a nice car parked outside...
Nice sunset to round off Sunday
