I love making birthday cakes, and have had plenty of practice as my Mum and I used to make lots for the family when I lived at home. This coffee and walnut creation was a special request for yesterday's celebrations!

Happy Birthday to my lovely husband without whose love and support I would be lost...

Happy New Year to everyone! May 2011 bring you happiness, good health and joy.

With only two days of preparations to go, I think I am organised and time to sit back and relax and take in the the lights and decorations ...

She may look a little raggedy or wild, depending upon your view. But she was made with love today by me and my daughter along with several more peg dolly angel friends - hopefully I can keep them safe and they may become little family heirlooms of the future?

The frost today is stunning, just too many beautiful images to take. I don't mind the cold when it's as pretty as this.
