This morning I got up at 6.15am because my body hasn’t got used to the clocks going back yet. Mind you that was fine because it gave me a couple of hours to sort out the kitchen and back oatmeal and raisin cookies to add to the birthday parcels i’m posting after lunch.

breakfast ended up being broken bits of cookies and toast. my bad.

As I mentioned in my last post, here is the bag I made for my friend J. It’s based on the front cover of this Japanese Craft book that i think i probably first saw on Bella Dia’s blog.

Inside are said cookies and a bar of dark chocolate.  🙂

Also, while I was tidying up I came across W’s marble collection, and rather than leave them in their current shoebox home, I decided to fill up the big plastic jar that usually contains corks and conkers and sit it on our window ledge in the lounge. 

There are some great colours in there. I’ll have to find the time to have a play and take some photos of my favourites. 🙂
