hello monday, another week to begin and another week closer to christmas and being able to spend valuable time with the girls and darren. we are trying our best to make things at home that require little or no money at all so im planning activities to keep the girls occupied throughout the weeks running up to christmas. we have been making lots of our own pizzas and cakes (we have some wonderful egg free cake reciepes).

its darren 38th b'day next friday and i havent a clue what to get him as we have no spare £ for pressies-i will have to make him a choc cake and ?????????????

all these little projects have been keeping me busy and cheering me up-i also tried a new nail technique and am loving the results-kayla from the dainty squid first introduced me to the idea, so i had to have a go.........

it saves £15 from going to the salon to have my nails painted-maddie saw them and said that she wanted hers the same.

finally, i have found a great website called modpodgerocksblog.com and its filled with great ideas.
