party time
I've been meaning to drop in here for the last few days to tell you that tomorrow, Tuesday, sees the first in this year's Show & Tell interviews!!! So exciting! For those of you who don't know the series, each month I interview an inspirational Australian blogger. The interviews are always fascinating, I love finding out more about each person and I invariably find myself smiling and nodding along as they talk about life and work and making, and I always come away inspired by their creativity.
This is the third year of Show & Tell (isn't that amazing?!) and I've got a really inspiring blogger to kick off the year. This blogger is multi-talented, she's funny, she's crafty, she's nice, she's inspiring, she shares lots of clever stuff and well... you better come back and read a bit more about her tomorrow!
In other news we had our first teenage party! Aren't we brave?! Luckily the weather played nice and we had a backyard full of lovely big kids eating, drinking and talking as the sun went down and later a couple of sleepover guests. It was fun, it was exhausting. We all collapsed in a heap on Sunday in our lovely clean house and ate leftover cupcakes and drank endless cups of tea!
Oh and somewhere in there I made plum jam too, with this easy recipe:

I do love a row of jars full of homemade jam, makes me feel very domestic goddess ;-)

ReplyDeleteTeenage party freaks me out! It all looks like you did great, though. Happy birthday
ReplyDeleteWell done for braving a teenage party - parties for the littlest are exhausting enough!
ReplyDeleteI hadnt seen your Show & Tell posts before so just went to have a look at some old ones - they look great & I'm really looking forward to reading new ones.
Oh I missed this post somehow! Love the shots and well done, you have a teenager! Teenagers get a bad rap but really they are sweethearts. Looks like a fun party..well done mumma xo
