Hello all!

Right then, I'm starting this weeks thread with some chat about chutney and quinces.

have a great week all!

quincy

Quieter times in the Donovan household, so blogged about something which has been annoying me for a while - Kirstie's Handmade home.

Glad I got that off my chest.

MmeLindor - you're very welcome I look forward to reading yours!

My latest post about differentiating between ASD and GDD...or trying to...

Taking my face out for the evening

I am on a roll this week - four posts in one week!

weekend wonders my blog party, open to all

The Balance Of Motherhood

On Louise Mensch and juggling parental responsibilities

My most recent post is showing off a how to about the earrings storage I made from a Printer's Tray. I am so pleased with it - it has revolutionised my accessory choosing in the morning. Important I'm sure you'll agree

Fb you genius!
Thank you for a great post.

I do reviews sometimes - here's one for a GIN and tonic bath foam that doesn't make you smell like a tramp. ;)

My recent post was my backlash against the pill and a plumping for the use of Fertility Awareness Method of contraception.

I am a Christian, so this does have slight Christian leanings in the post, but not as much as the rest of the blog. Read it to support me and if you're interested :)

I have a slightly different take on Armistice Day on my blog today with a challenge

First post as part of the network :)

Another new post this week. A ta-may-toe, ta-mah-toe on how to excuse oneself on either side of the Atlantic.

I've been doing NaBloPoMo, so my posts are getting a little random. Here is my latest, about elephants on the moon...

Suzy wrote about how to decide what's suitable for your kids as they get older today on Free Your Parenting

We still haven't caught that hamster

Did anyone blog about Operation Christmas Child or Samaritan's purse? I wanted to mention it on my blog. Yes I know I'm not in my blog name, I'm so tired I just can't be bothered to name change (It's DT by the way).

Oh good idea DT! I hadn't thought about mentioning Samaritan's Purse on my blog, but you've given me the idea now.

Have a leaflet for it here, must have a look to see if it's still possible to send things off and to check when closing date is.

I don't think I was going to write about it in the same way as you lastchocolate. I'm not really for the shoebox appeal, but I know your blog has Christian leanings, so you probably are. I was trying to comment on your post about birth control the other day but it was playing up. I didn't really agree with that either - sorry! Although this is a happy thread so I don't want to get all controversial on here :)

Bastard X Factor

I have written a tutorial on how to make Christmas tree baubles using fabric scraps here

My links post this week (sorry Mme Lindor - didn't do one last week in the end)

It's World Kindness Day today, but don't worry, it's not too soppy!

TheLastChocolate, sorry, I hope I didn't offend you with my last post. I'm still interested in reading your blog so hope you keep posting.

DT - no not at all offended! Life takes all sorts of people and I'm happy for you to disagree with me as I may well disagree with some things you have to say.

I'm a bit annoyed to read that the comments bit was messing up, I've had someone else tell me that whenever they tried to comment on my blog I shake my fist at Blogger!

Could you please try it again just to see if it's still happening?

Another post today, this time about the pairs of oven gloves I made at the weekend. Which ones are your favourite?
