"Retro, light hearted but with a bit of a dark side."
Love it!

As promised here are some pictures of Underwired magazine, which dropped through my letter box this morning.

There's also a short biog inside, including a photo *gulp* of me, taken in New York- I thought this was appropriate with it being an American publication and all! Although I probably appear a little too wrapped up for the May addition, but then again I'm always cold!

'Don't Panic' online magazine have a vote to design a pack each month. The next theme is "small" and I have submitted this design. I have a vague dread of growing old and gradually shirinking without realising it, it kind of seems inevitable!

I have been very dissapointed with Britains idea of Summer weather so far.
The days are dreary and dark, so I thought I would brighten up my Summer wardrobe with a few new garments!
This particular design is inspired by always having to carry a brolly in Britain. Whether it's January or July, you never know when a downpour of precipitation is heading your way!

2008-05-19T09:09:00.000-07:00

Nerva's Armistice Cake

2007-11-17T23:52:00.001-08:00

'Nerva's Armistice day' cake was a recipe featured in the Guardian for Rememberance day.
"On November 11 1918, in Medicine Lodge, Kansas, my grandmother Nerva Overstreet turned three years old. Her oldest brother had been called up to fight in the war, and her mother hadn’t made a cake for Nerva’s birthday. When the armistice was announced, she made this cake from ingredients she had on hand to celebrate. She later wrote the recipe down on a card, which my grandmother still keeps in her recipe box."

It's here!
