THE APRON. Pronounced [ey-pruhn]…. …. This word is actually really quite amusing me by now, as I have spent all day researching and talking to myself about them… literally!(I could actually see the puppy rolling his little eyes at me every time I rambled on at him about them hehe!) After wearing the new addition to my ever growing Apron Collection at last weekend’s Tea Party, I realised that I actual
The Secluded (New Year!) Tea Party was held on Sunday 30th January 2011 and boy was I shocked to realise that I was in fact …….Sold Out!?! …… I couldn’t quite believe it…I was going to be making and baking and creating an afternoon Tea Party for 14 people… ….Very nerve racking indeed! I had planned my Tea Party with the sole intention of making sure that everybody enjoyed one
After a very gluttonous Xmas and New year… and a few Birthday celebrations to boot already this year (!!!).…It has been no surprise that have started to feel very deflated and……..at the same time…very INflated …haha….. So….back to Weightwatchers I go….Virtually of course….Online Weightwatchers to be precise…the fat fighters of the cyber world : ) Such a joy!
Why a Virtual Tea Party? Well, I have had so many people telling me that they would LOVE to attend my underground tea party, however are unable to make it for various reasons.

I have been having a lovely email conversation lately with a local businesswoman who owns a clothing range called Trash Chic, where the lovely lady (Who calls herself Lady Fen – another Cambridge girl with an alter ego…I LOVE IT!!) believes that clothes are FUN!….And her clothing range really is! She creates clothes from cast-offs and gives them a new lease of life in the form of some very exciting items! C
This week is supposed to be the most depressing week of the year…. Monday was apparently the worst day of the week…. making people feel low, and unwell and generally miserable (Who found this out and decided this was official enough to be newsworthy, I personally feel, is an idiot with too much time on his or her hands! hehe)……It, admitedly, was heavy and dark with rain in sunny Cambridge on Monday mor
Every time I go to my bookshelf to look for something quite specific, I always annoy myself at just HOW MANY cookery cooks I actually have to peel from the shelves and onto the floor to get to the one that I need! This exercise is never a short one either…the book that I am looking for is most usually right at the bottom towards the back, and my living room ends up looking like Beirut within the space of approx 2 minutes
We took a trip to London between Xmas and New Year as we wanted to get out of Cambridge to stretch our legs and sample a few yummy treats around London…Mainly because we hadn’t realllllllllly indulged over the festive week (Which was unlike us!) and partly because of various recommendation’s and suggestions throughout the last few months….there were SO many places we wanted to try….we didn’t
