Amazeballs

So now I am able to mention the dairy free cake balls (amaze balls) that I made for Vikki on Sunday evening!!! Yep. Super smug. Especially having tried to buy dairy free margarine at the Co-op only to find all their marg is dairy full. Pah. So I nearly, nearly gave up. But then decided to laugh in the face of cow induced adversity and talk to my friend Mr Google. Turns out he had some super cool ideas to combat buttery no go areas of baking. The one which I went with was substituting butter for apple puree and vegetable oil. Done.

First Snow Experience

First Snow!

Today you, Mia, experienced the first snowfall of your life and it's one of those things that simply must be recorded. You looked on as your Father and I took turns to make snow zombies on the wall of our garage top terrace...

Mia Bakes

Mia Bakes Lots O' Cakes

So one of my besties popped round to see myself and the delectable Mia last Thursday evening... Mrs Rebecca Morris. Friend extraordinare and one of the best primary school teachers I know. Any child would be lucky to have her as their teacher and mentor. Plus she's crazy. She brought with her a cake mix - Percy Pig cake mix to be precise. Mayhem ensued.

New Life

Okay, so this entry is going to be all about the labour and birth of my baby girl. You have been warned. This will be all about the ins and outs and erm, outs and outs of my labour. So if you are squeamish do not read on. If you are pregnant, then choosing to read on is up to you. This is a candid account of what happened to me from my point of view.
