A Silent Sunday from me.

Hi All
Just added a new post. It is about my fumbling through an attempt to answer a tough question. Sadly, it is about death and trying to explain it to your child. I know that it is not the most uplifting post but still think that it is worth a read (not just saying that because I wrote it, well maybe).
Would love comments and to hear about your experiences with this.

Just posted a massive rant about my kids driving me mad over the last two weeks. Anyone else on their knees after the Easter hols?

Ironically, now we've reached the end of the hols (and following a very pleasant weekend), I'd give anything for an extra day with the little buggers darlings!

Oh wow - lots of lovely links to check out, thank you.
I have just posted after a little hiatus (inspired to get back in the groove after some lovely feedback on here...).
A wardrobe in the kitchen? Surely it'll never work?

Actually, no, it didn't. Read all about it here:

Emergency teabagging and other water saving tips like putting soap down your pants and saving spit. Funny yet useful.

kungfupannda enjoyed your post just now and added your blog to my blog roll.
Saw that you're near Bath, I'm in Salisbury, love a mooch round Bath Smile

The post before this one I did was on a similar theme to yours. Anyway I will enjoy visiting your blog again.

Mine today is a bit mundane (not really selling it I know !) but here it is anyway thoughtsfromthekitchensink.wordpress.com

BaronessOrczy · 17/04/2012 16:03

An account of my weekend in food heaven. I really, really need to diet now. And find out if I can purchase a Guinneaux Fowl.

Violet, I enjoyed your post on getting back to normal x
