I wholeheartedly believe that no matter what is happening in your life, there is always something that you can be thankful for... no matter how simple it is.
Here are a few of the things I am loving at the moment...
Loving whipping up a quick batch of pinwheel scones and everyone digging in while they are freshly iced and still warm.
The first fire this winter...
Pet shop visiting - a cheap form of school holiday entertainment!
Crochet beanies for barbie (I'm embarrassed to admit)...
Finally, my brave little soldier, who after a collision with her big brother on the trampoline a couple of days ago, now has 3 stitches in her tongue! They don't usually stitch tongues, so as you can imagine, it was a slightly awkward procedure. We've been on a long journey with her issue with doctors, and despite the horrible incident yesterday, she did so well and was even smiling and waving at each nurse and doctor she saw.
Here's how you can join in....

mmmm fire's are the BEST right! And I might have to look into making myself some pinwheel scones - they look so good! I love the pic of the hole in the tongue - the ouchie cringe factor is HIGH - and it cracks me up that you got a pic of it.. I can just see it "just hold still so I can get a pic for the blog" hehehe :-)
ReplyDeleteugh that tongue looks SORE :( I bet it bled a lot. What a brave princess xx
ReplyDeleteThat Barbie Beanie is awesome! :)
ReplyDeleteI was game! ;) I really want to see the stitched one!
ReplyDeleteBless her! She looks delighted to be able to stick her tongue out and not get scolded! Poor little tike, that must have really hurt.
ReplyDeleteSimaJ summed up what I was thinking about you getting a pic, reminds me of the time my eldest fell into the toilet and got stuck. He was wailing and I was bellowing "Hang on while I get my camera!"

ReplyDeleteYum! Those pinwheel scones look delicious! And BIG OUCH to your daughter that would of hurt A LOT!
ReplyDeletePoor wee soul! Trampolines, eh? When we moved to Australia all our friends in Scotland begged us to live near a hospital as our boys are so... erm... 'lively'! She'll thank you for photographing it, what a cool story to tell when she's older!
ReplyDeleteHope your weekend is accident-free!

Wow that is a decent bite! I love the Barbie hat. She looks so funky! Hey, I made muffins you blogged about this week except I had no feijoa so I used pear and ginger. They were so quick! Thanks for the recipe.

Congrats on your blogging journey.
