Damm, whilst I am sitting here wondering what we have been upto all day I have remembered the bread I left to rise about 3 hours ago!!! Just gone to check on it..........I think its a gonna!
We haven't really been very far today, however we have been fairly busy. When I was looking for my box of seeds at the weekend I came across a bag of Allium's and Hyacinth's that I think Mike might have been given earlier in the year. Anyway they had started to grow and despite the bags saying plant in the Autum I decided we would pop them in and see what happens, otherwise they will stay there - forgotten indefinitely. So we spent a few hours in the garden and what a beautiful few hours it was - the sun was shining and in the shelter it was really warm. We also made some more birdcake - Mimi loves making these especially the bit where she packs it into an old yogurt pot. We attempted bread which needs no further comment!
Then traditionally as today is Shrove Tuesday / Pancake Day we had Pancakes for dessert. Mimi had "Pancake Pillows" - These are rolled up pancakes with raspberry sauce. She ate so much I was a bit worried she might pop! Mimi took it all very seriously and made Mike flip the pancakes just like Daddy Pig, luckily ours didn't get stuck on the ceiling!
Mimi has played non-stop with the new play-doh (the old stuff had all dried up so I replaced it at the weekend) and is slowly driving me a bit bonkers. I keep finding it everywhere including in my shoes and wrapped around the dolls house chimney. I was sitting down earlier when a spoonful was thrust towards my mouth. It is a nightmare to collect all the little bits up and I am thinking of hiding it for a few days. Or is that really mean?!?!
