So I've pulled the below post out from the archives of my old blog site. It is Good Friday today 2020, we are in isolation, experiencing a very quiet Easter weekend. We've had a nice slow lazy morning, and today we made Gingy bread of course. The recipe is below and if you just want to pop M&M's in the middle, just do it before you pop them in the oven, some worry about them cracking, but they are usually ok, and it saves time icing them to make them stick later....the little bits of choc on top usually just...

So disappointedly I ordered some special sprinkles for the kids birthday cake last month, and they didn’t arrive in time  – a week after I might add :( BUT I was left with these awesome jars of colour, so I had decided right then and there once Easter came up I’m going to make some Easter bark.

They gave me a list of some items they would like to see and had in mind, as I always ask for reference of what type of style they are after, of course they wanted my...

I had been intrigued about these acupressure mats since I first saw one. It wasn't until my husband shared a post of a tattooist using one for her back and had suggested it for me, that I got back on track, researched, found a NZ business Shakti and ordered one. I've always had a funny back...I have slight C scoliosis which was only diagnosed when I had a fall at work (Pizza kitchen hand;) ) when I was 15, they assumed my almost decade of ballet is what kept it un- noticed and without much problem due to the strict...
