I am ashamed to say I have neglected my blog, but I have been busy, I have, thanks to support of my two best friends have received orders for 15 cakes for Christmas, these range from individual sized to large square fruit cakes and three sponges. I have marzipan the fruit cakes and have now started coating hem in the regal icing, I will do all of them and then decorate them. The sponges will be made nearer to Christmas as their shelf life is not as good as the fruit cakes. I will be posting some picture of the finished cakes soon.
Whilst I have been busy my handy man husband has also been busy, we have been working on the hall, stairs and landing here are some pictures I have included one from a previous posting to give you an idea of what the hall looked like and now we have banister's on the stairs both landing and bottom, i think they look fab and can't wait to put carpet on the stairs and finish everything off. Hopefully Kevin's mum and dad will brave coming round to see us now as before it wasn't really safe for them especially as we have two energetic dogs running around. As you can see Kyrie has managed to get into one of the photo's its very rare that she does as she is scared of the camera. Well I am afraid that's it for today i will try not to stay away too long. See you all soon. Sue x
It's all taking shape Sue! Well worth it in the end - we did ours recently & I'm over the moon with the results.
ReplyDeleteFab news about your cakes - well done you..!! Looking forward to seeing the pics of them.....mmmmmmmmmmmm..!! xx
Oh, I love the bannister -- but then, I love open staircases with banisters.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on all your cake orders. I'll be very anxious to see the pics of them. You make such lovely cakes.
I'm afraid that I, too, have neglected my blog. It's the busy time of year for my Etsy shoppe. I sat down here for a moment to take a break from all my sewing, and thought I'd look in on a few people around blogdom. Have a blessed Chrismastide!
well its all go in your home, hope your poor hubby is getting some cake to eat after all his hard work
ReplyDeleteThank you all, its really exciting for me at the moment what with one thing and another. Kevin's mum and dad visited yesterday and they gave their approval. I think his dad is quietly proud. See you all soon. x
