Let's Spread Bubbles!

   


   

At the beach with friends spreading bubbles when kids go past! It was a lovely day. In the evening we stayed down the beach, got kebabs and watched the fireworks.

Daisy in the Sun



This one came out really well! I was trying for ages to take a different picture of a bumble bee on some tall purple flowers but the focus on my silly camera kept jumping. It was such a lovely day!

Cake Baking on a Monday Afternoon


Today I spent the afternoon baking two cakes for my nan's 70th birthday! In between I was out in the garden soaking up the sun.  And I tried really hard to make the decorations look pretty, exciting and yet high quality made.
