Brighton bake off

Today the sun is out, chilly but not grey.  It's an especailly nice way to start the week as I have been poorly with labyrinthitis!  It's an ear infection and you spend the best part of the day, spinning around.  This is my third attempt to catch with my blog and other blogs.  Last weekend I had a great time photographing these lovely cakes.  I got in touch with the lovely Laura of Little Button Diaries in the hope of working together as she is super creative.  Laura suggested that I should come down and photograph the bake off that she was running alongside super+super in aid of rocking horse charity.  It was such a lovely day, witnessing so many epic cakes being entered.  Thank you all for making me feel so welcomed.  Also the event got me thinking about working on some Kinfolk gatherings in these neck of the woods.  Before you ask, yes they did taste as good as they look, (the winner was a truly delicious victoria sponge with the stunning painting of the bird).

Random Monday

After a people oriented weekend, I stayed in and cleaned.  I am trying to cram as much into the next 24 hours, as to relax with the girls for the next six weeks!  Advanced warning, as much I will endeavour to keep my posts regular, please bear with me during this summer season.  No doubt I will have endless photos of the girls to post, but maybe not so much still life works of mine.  Who knows?
During the summer holidays, our village feels a little bit like a ghost town, people truly disappear.  Anyway holiday tips please feel free to pass it on.  My random shots through the week, my favourite is the rose border in someones front garden.

Velvet Cupcake delight

In the light of all this glorious weather we are having over in the UK, I can safely assume that you had a wonderful weekend!?  I snapped these last Thursday on C's birthday.  I have to admit they were shop bought, but nevertheless tasted good.  This week I am mainly getting ready prints ready for a craft market in Shoreham on Sea this weekend.
