Birdies

I got the know-how to make these little darlings from here... have a look at Elvie's plagiarism story, by the way. Isn't it tragic? Just goes to show how careful we all need to be in this age of internet inbreeding!

In any case, I find these guys incredibly soothing to create, a kind of hiatus in stressful times... you should give it a try:

wedding cake trial run...

we test ran my sister's wedding cake, marzipan and icing in miniature this afternoon...

I think it will be easier in the big version... but it should be exciting either way!


WEDDING FEVER has started...

Remember that time when...

...the till at Pick and Pay went on the fritz and started adding VERY EXPENSIVE red cabbages to our grocery shop... LOTS of them!

Great hilarity between ourselves and the staff as they desperately tried to stop the madness (it didn't work), called higher and higher up managers (all while the invisible cabbages continued to mount up) and eventually had to crash the system and had to start ringing up our groceries from scratch on another till!

I guess with 66 giant red cabbages the cabbage party is at our house?

Though maybe we can't afford to have a party now that all our worldly possessions will have to be sold to pay off the cabbages...hmmm...

Certainly provided enough laughter for the weekend!
