Update

Our little boy Romain was born on Wednesday. Now I'll have a reason to make more cakes and craft, but possibly less time to do so !



My Stick Family from WiddlyTinks.com

Inspired

This very cute Birdie was featured on Torie Jayne's blog a few days ago and I just love it. The colours are beautiful and I like the ribbon tail !
Since I am going to need a new Hair Clip Holder for the girls soon, I will most probably base it on this design.

Mothers' day cookies

Some cookies I made last year. I like the idea of a "bunch" of Cookies, a bit of a change from the traditional bunch of flowers.

Mothering sunday

Last sunday was Mothers' day here in the UK so I took the opportunity to try my hands at cupcakes again. I haven't had much time for cake decorating lately so I thought cupcakes made the perfect project to get back into it.

I used Glorious Treat's recipe for the cupcakes and the frosting. The were divine. Honestly this frosting is so so good ! Thanks for sharing Glory !

I have been following Glorious Treats on Flickr and then on her blog for a couple of years now and I love her work. She is such an inspiration.

An other Flickr page I love is Zalita's one. Honestly her cupcakes are a work of art.... She is so talented.

Settled

Hi there
I cannot believe it has been two months already since my last post!!
So here I am, now in Leicestershire. I finally have an internet connection ! (it took us 5 weeks this time...)
Still pregnant and now overdue.
At least the sun is shinning and spring is here !

Let me leave you with a picture of some treats I made yesterday: chocolate shortbreads !

Recipe here. I just added some chocolate chips to the original vanilla shortbread recipe.
The texture was really light, I liked them.

Have a great day.
