David’s been stamping a lot lately. These 7gypsies stamps come in very
handy since they mean no messing with ink pads.

We bought a big boy bed today!

Mousse au Chocolat

Friday’s prompt from Shimelle is: What was your favourite treat as a
child? What is it now? Share the story behind your favourite treats
(be they sweets or luxuries) with your readers to see if
they share your tastes.

Well when I first read this, I thought of bubble baths. I used to take
these bubble baths where I had music playing, a bowl of fruit floating,
and a fantastic book. I loved them. The second time I read it, I
immediately thought of chocolate. My grandmother makes this amazing
Chocolate Mousse. It’s mouth watering. Even now, when I visit home, it’s
the first thing she makes for me.



I don’t have either today but I am still addicted to chocolate.
Especially Lindt Lindor. It’s the very very best!

Techniques

Thursday’s prompt from Shimelle is: What artistic technique do you
love but not use often? What artistic technique intimidates you? Maybe
you’ll find an expert in that technique reads your blog and can comment
with tips for you!

A great question as always. There are too many for me. Sewing. Vintage.
Painting. I would love to do any of these. They all intimidate me.
Especially the drawing. I so wish I could draw and paint better. I’ve
also always wanted to make a quilt.

I know this one is lame but I like that I have apples in my backyard.

Cat’s Cradle

Here’s Shimelle’s prompt from Wednesday: If there was just one thing
from your youth that you could pass on to today’s younger generation
what would it be? Something as simple as the original Sesame Street
theme song or something more complex, like growing up more
slowly?



For some odd reason, the very first thing that came to my mind was Cat’s
Cradle.



My sister and I played this game for hours when we were kids and I loved
it so much. Thinking of it makes me think of being a kid. In that
non-electronic, non-email way. Like jumping rope which I also loved.
