tiny happy

It's been a very good Friday around these parts, starting with a no-school sleep-in, extended waffle breakfast and general lazing about. Then I got some work done, which is always a good feeling, K spent a couple of hours making flower jewellery including these lovely daisy-rings (note the chipped bright nail polish- it's the latest look amongst her friends) and some dandelion rings which are now in my jewellery box.

I also had a go at making an Easter hot cross loaf, using Lucy's recipe. While it was rising, I remembered that I didn't have a loaf tin, so the dough was just plonked down in a round cob-style shape, and it was all good, except that my cross in the middle got very big and slightly stretched-looking. It still tastes nice with butter though and has that lovely spicy soft-fruit taste that says 'Easter'.

Happy Easter to you, if you're a celebrater, and I'll be back in a few days.
