bunbun - your cookies and the chocolate little hearts are gorgeous - my goodness - you did great!!! Your oh is one lucky guy. :-) Well done!!! :T:T:T
I also loooooooooooooove your framed scrapbook page - so lovely. Well done!!! :T:T:T
I think it's time for me to start on the scrapbook for my mum and dad, and my dearest sis - just wish I knew where and how to start.
Anyhow, finished my seed sowing for today, all my toms and peppers are done, and so are my french strawberries. Shall be at it tomorrow again - flowers for hanging baskets and tubs next. :-)

sylphraven - of course you can come for dinner - u'd be very welcome. Made a chocolate cake, too. :-) I was being naughty, not only did i make one for tomorrow especially, but i couldn't resist an extra cake looking at me nicely from the oven. :-) And now i am out of cocoa powder. :eek: So my shopping list for tomorrow - get those bloomin' onion sets before they sell out and COCOA!!! :rotfl:

Oooooh Jammy, don't worry - I made a card with glossy photo paper, picture of us from hols - really nice one ;-) and loads of little hearts and I kissed it too so to get my lips print on it. maybe a bit silly and teenage like - but I think it looks nice and we ought to have fun, especially these days. :-)
On the front it says: you are loved...
on the inside: by me. And there it is, my big sloppy kiss. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

Good evening to everyone,

sorry for maybe a stupid question, I was reading the Victorian farm thread and someone mentioned another thread and I don't know where to find it, could you help please?

This is it: Where the OS magic happens.

Thank you. xxx

happy valentines day girls!!

Well we had a lovely Valentines night last night, exchanged half made cards, unwrapped presents as we sniffled our way through eating a box of chocolates whilst lying on the couch

It was actually lovely as my OH waited on me hand and foot as I was too poorly to leave the couch, so in a very weird and snotty way it was really romantic

What are you all up to with your dearly beloveds??

(if anyone is wondering we usually exchange gifts for things on the eve of Birthdays, valentines etc.)

jamtart glad you managed to so something last night but sorry to hear you are still not feeling well. make sure you get plenty of rest and get well soon. did you manage to camp out in your new house?
my OH was impressed with the amount of things I had made! have spent the week making things but the house is a mess:rotfl:

mhagster well done on your scrapbook layouts. would love to see pics of them!

rusty I don't want to know if the cutters are reduced on Sunday:rotfl:

Bunbun - no we didn't but we might do it another weekend. It is too dusty and damp for me at the moment to stay there the things you made for your OH were lovely
