Inset day for the 6yo, so we have headed to Wonder Lab at @the.science.museum which is one of our favourite trips together. Exploring resistance, bridge-building, tesselating patterns and centripetal force.
This is what getting ready to go and see Nanna and Grandad for half term looks like in 2021!
Day 16 - Saturday. This Saturday looks like a 5 mile walk to a Cotswolds country pub, whilst on a mini break celebrating 22 years together with (and 11 years married to!) this lovely man.
Day 12 - Make. My 12yo is obsessed with #GBBO and likes to bake along each week, so she makes cake in cake week, biscuits in biscuit week and so on. Tonight is desert week, and she made treacle tart. I am very excited as it's a real favourite of mine.
Day one of @theclotheslineie Magic of October challenge, and the prompt is #Autumn. Today was very autumnal with slanting rain and swirling winds this morning and sparkling sunshine this afternoon. Along with Anne Shirley, I am also very glad I live in a world where there are Octobers.
When you're trying to do some work at your laptop but a certain tabby cat wants a cuddle instead. He can just about cope with my attention not being on him if I am doing moving around jobs like cleaning, cooking etc, but as soon as I sit down I am HIS.
