At Easter we had a relaxing dabble, enjoying homemade Simnel cake, and having a sort of the yarn and squares made.

This week there was a request for baby boy blankets by MKBabybasics, so we spent the afternoon making squares and then Hillery took them home and joined them all up into a crib blanket.
We are now dabbling for an Easter flower decoration. We have blown them, cracked them, decoupaged and painted to be added to a flower display.
Hopefully more photos to follow when we have completed the decoration.

We are planning to use natural rings, baskets etc.
We did some Christmas cooking, for a couple of weeks.
the first week we made the following:
Blanched and roasted almonds
Large Medjool dates stuffed with marzipan and/or roasted almonds
Peanut butter cups
and basically coated some or all of the above in chocolate
the following week where I forgot to take photos, we learnt how to make cheese thins, and that we could freeze them before baking and cook from frozen, adding sesame/poppy seeds along the way, very tasty.
We also discussed how to make cranberry gin, and a couple of us made it.
and then took it a step further and made hampers adding to the items I learnt to make....
