Something has been making small neat holes in our garden.
But I have no idea what it is...

Pancakes



Having money difficulties while deciding when to get christmas cards printed.
I reckon I'll spend tonight convincing myself that people will buy them and then I'll order them tomorrow.

At least my pancakes with honey were easy earlier today.

Zine progress



A peek at part of a page.
Nearly all the pages for the zine are done. Then it's just working out the page layout, printing, trimming, folding and covers. All the hard bits. Then selling hopefully!
I hope it turns out good.

I was so excited when I found those red leaves yesterday. I know that Autumn is my favourite and that it's really pretty but then you actually see it again and it's amazing.
And it's hardly even started yet!

Baking Frenzy

Cookies

Crumble

Yesterday I baked the second half of the cookie dough I'd frozen before and in the evening I made an apple and red berry crumble.
I love that when it starts getting colder you can start cooking more warming foods. During the hot months having the oven on full blast all day isn't fun, in the cold months it's awesome!
I'm looking forward to the first cottage pie of the season.

13th September



Yesterday, making christmas gift tags for the shop and working on my zine before going to see The Expendables and Resident Evil: Afterlife with Will.

Days like these make me happy.

Autumn 'Zine

Autumn Hand

A page from the Autumn issue of my seasonal 'zines.
I haven't decided a deadline for it but it'll be ready for your enjoyment before too long.

I'm also working on some other seasonal type bits for my shop and it's feeling good.

Exhibitions and a Station

St Pancras

We went to see this exhibition at the National Gallery and this one at the National Portrait Gallery. They were both really good, the Fakes, Mistakes and Discoveries one was really interesting. Some really nice stuff at the Portrait Award, makes me inspired and jealous all at the same time.
The photo is St Pancras station. I love the buildings in London, they're all so different.

I'm knitting little hats for this great cause. You should too, it's really fun.

Recently...

...I have started putting together my very first 'zine. I'm quite excited by it.

...I finally found somewhere to hand in a CV. Hopefully I'll find more vacancies or will get that job.

...I received my certificate that says I have a degree. They didn't mention that you had to apply to receive it if you didn't go to the ceremony, hence it being so late.

...the John Lewis I've been getting the yarn for my scarf has stopped selling my yarn when I only needed one more ball of it. Fingers crossed I'll find it somewhere else.

...Will and I went to Stanborough Lake and it was lovely.

...I finally used my HMV voucher and watched Amelie. I can't believe it's taken me so long to see it, it's exactly my kind of film.
