Anyone else getting the urge to tidy up this weekend or is it just me?

A Study In Tidiness

And no, I'm NOT pregnant and "nesting"! But there IS a cause for my compulsion that I suspect many of you will share! Let me know if you agree...

I have The Marmalade Blues

A quick silent sunday from me cos I'm busy writing blog number two!!

I have finally finished, and blogged about, my first ever patchwork quilt.

I made it completely out of my scrap fabric stash apart from the backing which I bought a double flat sheet and used.

It only took me 18 months to finally get round to finishing it after I started cutting out the squares!

I'd really appreciate feedback as I have never made a quilt before.

I am over sharing again.

Talking to my teenage daughter about what to wear without screaming 'you're not going out dressed like that!!' My latest blog is here:

I'm having another rant, this time about communal changing rooms in secondary schools.

A Silent Sunday from me too. It's a funny tale...

Overmydeadbody, that is fantastic! (Also, noticed I have the same futon and chest of drawers as you, but they look much better with your quilt. )

Oh, and I posted a fulfilling photo roundup to cover all the things we've been making over the festive season.

I'm trying to get to grips with e-publishing

I've blogged about sex, friendship and relationships.. just the usual then..

Irresponsibility, sexting and public displays of affection

Pleased to have found your writing blog, sallyjenkins!

Riding horses keeps me sane in the cold weather and dark nights

This morning we had just Enough Snow This afternoon we are having quite a lot more!

I spent most of the weekend eating, and why I love Jamie Oliver.

I should be at the gym now, but have written this blog post instead, about eating and now I reeeaallly fancy a piece of my choc and banana cake- oh dear- well here's the blog post anyway:
Now That Is Tasty..

Phewwww!

We made it through ... just ... a party of 14 three to four year olds, (plus mums and a few dads & siblings), crammed into our house for littl'un's third birthday.

This one may not be for those of a sensitive disposition - my daughter and I made a stuffed cat/thing/monster

Introducing She-la with apologies for ensuing nightmares

After the US election, I worried I would have nothing to write about. So thanks, Joe Biden, for being you.

You just put your lips together and blow, Joe .... why Vice President Joe Biden is like a BIG OLD SEXY TROMBONE.
