Two years ago our wellie wearing family moved to the rolling wet hills of Mid Wales. We decided to grow our own fruit and veg, keep bees, poultry and build our own furniture with little or no experience.



This is our journey to the good life.

Busy Bee day

Have had a busy day today.

I made a chocolate cake from the Green&Black's recipe book last night and got my daugher to decorate it today for a friend's Birthday and then we took it over to surprise him along with my Cat-Puzzle I made on the scroll saw.

When we got back and the kids were napping, I decided to get some exercise moving earth rather than going for a run. I emptied one of the dumpy bags of topsoil into one of the raised beds. Disappointingly it hasn't even half filled it. Half way through as a disguised rest break, I pruned the raspberries.

Finally I started a new scrollsaw project. I have actually got about 4 projects all needing doing but was good to get going on another one. This one is my daughter's nickname, each letter a puzzle piece - she learnt the letters of the alphabet so quickly with the alphabet puzzle I made her, I am hoping she will learn to write her name from this one!
