I'd lose my head if it wasn't taped on!

Trick or Treat?

Happy Halloween dollfaces!!

Do you believe in magic? Me too!! I'm not quite sure if this counts as witchcraft, but I think I may have been spellbound by the root vegetable family? Everywhere I look there's a beet, here a beet, everywhere a beet, beet... Take this recipe for Beetroot Ice cream from Love and Olive Oil as an example?!

Holly homemakers, a sneaky peak at my post for a scrummy beetroot cake video recipe soon to be featured on the a connected life site! And just in time for the weekend! Who could ask for anything more? Now, now no fighting over whom it is who licks the beaters!

it's a man's world

Little ladies,

Let me introduce you to some boys who blog...

Meet Reuben, the Mr. of House of Humble, a crafty thing making, yummy thing baking and picture taking blog. Wave hello to Robert and his blogosphere, KnitXcorE built by him, inspired by his grandma (a note to all my man fans - girls like guys who like craft). Give a warm welcome to Colby Kern, he likes tea and cookies AND tulips! And last but not least, cheer a girlie greeting to Dane, the man behind Tornadoes and Tigers an archive of creative findings and inspirations.

Scrumpets crumpets! Isn't it nice to play with boys who don't pull your hair, throw gum nuts and call you nasty names!

a different neck of the woods

A dear friend gave me a little word of advice, "If you don't like where you are, change it.

You are not a tree". And so my tummy giggled when I found this. A new month, a new leaf! And now to decide, will I be a sweet peach or a sour plum this coming November?
