Morning, errrr....afternoon even. Seems a bit milder here to day, OH hasn't even put the heating on for a change. Amazed at how many leaves are still on the trees, even our wisteria is still clinging onto its foliage. Having a quiet day in today before dec madness starts. In fact, I'm still not showered and dressed lol. How is it dec 1st already tomorrow, seems only yesterday it was jan. Kind of feel a bit sad that another year has nearly passed us by. But then nov has been a difficult month and I'll be glad to see the back of it tbh.

I'm with you on that CW, Xmas card writing shouldn't be a chore should it? Actually, I must locate mine, sure I have some somewhere but where is the question.

Hope your kit if ok PM, better this than litters of unwanted kittens x

CM, your cakes look amazing, I tried my first hand at icing this week, thought I'd done ok until I saw yours. What nozzle do you use? Thinking of investing in an icing set but don't want to fork out on ones I won't use. X

Oh, and what do you measure your mix out with? My cakes turned out all diff sizes....

Sorry didn't reply Kerri not been on all weekend. I wasted money on an icing set and don't use it the little plastic nozzles are rubbish tbh all I ever use now is disposable piping bags (very cheap on eBay) and a Wilton 2d nozzle (think its called a drop flower nozzle) they are about £3 and are a large metal nozzle can buy them in lakelands or on eBay Wilton is very good make its what all the you tubers I watched recommended. Then once got the nozzle I just watched a few vids on YouTube and copied them . Re the right amount of mix I just put about a heaped dessert spoon full so case about half full don't really even think about it now you just do on auto after while. But to give you and idea an 8 oz mix should do about 18-20 good sized cup cakes

Morning all.

Very foggy here today I am at in a quiet house with puppy snoring on my lap enjoying the last few minutes of peace before waking the kids up. Must have worn them out at the weekend as they never lay in lol

Have managed to get a few bundles on eBay and clear some of the house over the weekend will most likely do Xmas tree next weekend as we are holding one of the come round just dance 2014 parties for dd1 friends should be fun then she is going to a cupcake decorating class birthday party on the Sunday (she already helps me so should be interesting to stay and watch lol). Things getting really busy here now wit nativity and school fete and fundraising and village bingo but it should mean I finally get rid of all the boxes of goodies I've been collecting for them will be nice to get my house back to normal lol

Right wake up time. Catch you all later

Morning CM and everyone else
Cleared the loft out a bit this weekend in preparation for getting xmas decs out at some point this month. Loft was a bit messy after the building work earlier this year so we took two loads of stuff to the charity shop and tidied it up a bit. Found a fibre optic xmas tree we forgot we had that will go nicely in the conservatory
