HAHAHA funny you should say that, I made some of the cupcakes the other day, gave some to a friend, see's placed a massive order for xmas eve plus, gingerbread and shortbread lolly pops. I do a lot of baking to pass the time, keep me occupied.

I Dont want to total up how much this cake has cost me, I could have probably bought 2 expensively priced ones. Without all the time & effort its taken me.

But its the satisfaction that I MADE IT, with the kids help & ideas. They decided they wanted a tree, present's and an angel, who I have just noticed is missing her halo in the pictures.

IT's the personal touch that makes it worth the money

Hi all. I haven't posted in a long while. Will try to keep this short. Every time I catch up, I feel it's a bit late to put my twopence in.
Wishing all with babies and bumps lately a very merry untiring xmas. I know what it is like as I was there last year, now my LO is 14months and into everything! Luckily the xmas tree hasn't gone over yet!

Quite a productive day today with the OEP glitch, got a bit yesterday in P@@le, then tried today at fl33t. Did a trial run, picked up 6 salsa wraps and about £10 of stuff I was buying anyway - total £6.64 - extra glitch kicked in too :j
So decided to do my normal shopping with a bit of everything roughly same prices all in 3's, salsa, wraps, nachips, tacos..total bill £128 after discount £48. Went through normal till, should have seen the young lads face. Saving on shopping in 2nd trip was about £14 - plus of course all the EOP for Free!!:j
So happy with my haul and I don't even really eat it. Passed some on to my neighbour and friend...some for my brother and sister and we are all trying some tomorrow. Nice when you can try something for free.

Saw a half clip strip of andrex rolls yesterday, but left them. Wondering if they are what tinyshoes picked up. Haven't quite caught up, so off I go back to reading. Hope I thanked the right people for the EOP glitch, extra thanks to everyone that contributed. Thanks to this site we will be having a great xmas this year. Thank you all, incase I don't post again before..I wish everyone a lovely xmas.

Wow!! That is fab Princess!! You must be thrilled with it :T
Your pics are so clear too, what camera do you have?

A digital SLR, camera, It's my job, although I dont put the effort in for snap shots.

I have a sony A550, shooting on a Tamron 28-75mm F2.8 lens.

Hoping santa brings me the new sony A77
