Ben stayed well back out of the way, while Molly and Daisy tried on hats. And raced around the hall in and out of everyone. Ready for Ascot Molly?
Anyhoo I got the girls a cute little blue polka dot suitcase and i got a red and white polka dot dress, that someone had made. Great for the fabric i thought to myself and at 20p who could moan. Granny got herself some plastic mini daffs in a pot and some groovy multi coloured slippers for the winter. It was great fun, if a little scary hehe!
The rest of the weekend was just a bit grey and not much else happened. Ben did a yummy Sunday lunch and we just chilled and watched the Harry Potter film on the box. A bit of reading and then it was Monday morning before we could say where's the weekend gone?
Friday afternoon in the Cupcake house was turned into a Winter wonderland. Both Molly and Daisy decided that behind the sofa needed a bit of a snowie look, so undone the large bean bag we have there.
A small yummy treat for myself that evening helped take away the stress of the day lol awww bless Hotel Chocolat and their divine rose & violet dark chocolate creams. Little squares of Mummy heaven. Shame I've run out now, oh well I'll just have to get some more.
Many hugs and cupcake wishes.

the heart photo is perfect for a business card
Jumble sales = chaos!

The hearts look lovely and would make a great business card.... I always find that its best to be on the organising side of a jumble sale, 1. you get to pick out any good stuff when you are setting up and 2. you have a table between yourself and the madding grannies as they foam at the mouth and grab everything in their reach.
Never get between them if they pick up the same garment, I would rather split up a pair of rotties!
Bit of a wash out here in Somerset, and the telephone was down all weekend so no internet.....AHHHHHHH!
Cheers Alex
Glad you survived!!!! It sounded just like an NCT sale, Have you ever been to one? I remember popping into one when Imogen was a baby and I was heavily pregnant...Boy did anyone care?...No!! I was glad to get out in one piece.
The other hysterical one is a Boden End of line sale!!! I like to go to just stand back and watch! The women there would kill for that last spotty coat believe me!
Mental note - remember to sew bean bags up!! I know I shouldn't laugh but they were little monkey's weren't they?
Definately use the photo...love it, love it, love it.
