All Occasions Cake.

I'm linking up today with AP from ILYMTC for two posts. I should a have done this yesterday but we won't even get started on yesterday.

I'm linking up for The dog days {of winter} are over and Hey, That's Pin-tastic!

This weeks link-up is for the dog days is "make it". I am very proud to say I made these.

Here is the start recipe that I use. I just double it if I'm using a bigger tin or different shape.

5oz Flour

6 -8 oz Sugar

3 Eggs 

3 floz Water

Separate the eggs.

Mix the sugar, egg yolks and water until light and foamy.

Add the flour.

Beat the egg white until in stiff peaks.

Add to the other mixture.

Decide into 2, 8 inch tins lined and floured.

Bake at 180c for 15 to 39 minutes.

Pin-tastic/Crafty creations : Homemade party favors.

I'm linking up with I love you more than carrots for "Hey, that's Pin-tastic! I'm a little late with the link-up but as the saying goes, " better late than never".

Jasmin's 5th birthday is coming up soon. Like in 6 days but her party isn't for 11 days and I wanted some party favors to send home with the kids but I wanted something different.

Then I saw this idea on pinterest where I could make some cute party favors and use up all those bits of broken crayon around the house.

First, chop all the crayon bits into smaller bits. Try not to use too many dark colours cos they turned out like knobs of poop. 

Next put them into a silicone mold. I used an ice-cube tray. It didn't say it was ovenproof but it did say it was dishwasher proof. I figured that the dishwasher get quite hot so it should be ok in a low over.

I was right! Thank God!!

Stick them in the over at 100C for about 5 minutes. Check them then cos you might have to top them up. Check them every 5 mins or so. You don't want them o melt too much.

I think they turned out fab and so did Jasmin.

Can't wait to see what everyone else thinks.

Happy pinning everyone!!

Project Pinterest : Loo roll bird feeders

Linking up with AP over at I love you more than carrots for project pinterest.

This link-up has got me to make more things off pinterest over the last couple of weeks then ever.

Well done AP.

Go over and link-up.

This week I made "Loo roll bird feeders"

Here is what you need:

The inside of the loo roll

Peanut butter

Bird seed

A plate

A knife

First put some of the seeds on the plate.

Then cover the loo roll in the peanut butter

Next roll it in the seeds.

And there you have it.

 The beauty about these is you don't have to hang them with string. 

You just have to slip it on a branch and the birds can feed straight away.

I think the birdies will love these once the really cold weather come in.

Happy pinning everyone!!
