A quick blog entry tonight as I am tired, been food shopping, library visit and then dvd shopping this afternoon to get a copy of "Wreck it Ralph" for Anais and Roman as Sainsbury's didn't have any this morning.
I made the kids a chocolate cake which didn't rise very well but was very dense and rich, half got polished off tonight already, yum! They were impressed as I iced the top as well as the inside today, just double cream warmed up enough to melt a block of dark chocolate.

Finally got hold of a copy of "Wreck it Ralph" after the kids have been asking for it since we saw it at the cinema and they love it. We all watched it eating tea on our laps and had chocolate cake for pudding.
I made another "cover" for a jam jar, this one is bigger than a jam jar though I think it had pickled onions in it! It is the cup pattern again but I kept going until I got to the top of the jar and then did a simple crochet chain in blue and cream yarn together to act as a tie around the top to secure it and stop it falling down. It didn't take long at all as the wool was quite chinky and I also used a larger (5mm) sized crochet hook. Will use it as a vase for flowers.
