Holiday Fun

For me, baking and crafting doesn't stop on holiday. I have come armed with a couple of cook books and my sewing machine. I have tried to keep my list of things I want to achieve short as I want to get out for regular runs and go for a few photo shoots. I must say, I am loving my camera. Even found a diploma I could do. Super keen and slightly crazy!!

So anyway, I made a cheesecake for lunch today. It is a real crowd pleaser, it is about the only dessert that Blair loves. He is about to eat slice number three. It is simple to make and super tasty.

With yummy dark chocolate, maybe I want an extra piece now.

I have started another quilt. Ryan has been asking and asking for his own Batman quilt. Today I started it for him. I was going to do a hugs and kisses type quilt but I decided that I would go simple and do 5 inch squares randomly sewn together. I will put on a border and just keep expanding it to make it the size I want.

Heres all the piles of fabric.

I have nearly all the squares into pairs. I am thinking 12 wide and how ever many rows I can make. Ryan was pretty happy to see it finally being made. I promised I would have it all sorted for when we move into the new house. I have quite a bit of work to do.

And just a few photos I took this afternoon. I am really enjoying learning how my camera works and the things you can do with each shot. Maybe I need a career change
