Progress
http://earthyself.com/feblog/2008/01/19/progress-52/
We’ve started back reasonably well. I wouldn’t say we’re fully back into the swing of things, but we are definitely back to singing, Mat Time, and some of the reading. Puggle is happy to go and choose an activity from the sewing cabinet (and mostly put it away again ( Read more... ) -

Popcorn Cake

(Especially for Redbraids:-) )
Dawn posted today about her plans for the next couple of days-the birthday of A. A. Milne, and Popcorn Day. She included a link to a fabulous looking Popcorn cake, that I just had to share-it might be a little easier to eat than the last one I tried:-) -

Puggle doesn’t watch TV (well, one grandmother occasionally tapes a bit of a nature programme, or a news report on Panda bears for him… and of course, he went through that real YouTube phase… but aside from that… he doesn’t.)

Craft Sunday

I’ve had a few people ask me if Craft Sunday was on… basically they will be the first Sunday after the 15th-except for February when it will be Saturday instead (I’m going to do a Latin class:-) ).
So this Sunday coming (the 20th), you’ll be welcome to come by after 1.30. I have no idea [...] -
Sand Tray
http://earthyself.com/feblog/2008/01/14/sand-tray/
I’ve been meaning to make this for a while, but as it turns out, I think now was a good time to get to it:-)
It was quite a simple project. I got a pre-made craftwood tray, painted all the outside bits orange, and the base blue. The sand is polenta (cornmeal). I’ve left it with [...]
