Gardening Pancakes and Playdough, not necessarily in that order!!




Tonight I have finished my gardening notebook, it is simple but it is a thick notebook that I can write in and put articles from magazines/newspapers & internet in.






We made pancakes tonight, we love them and eat them with all the wrong things, chocolate spread, lemon juice, sugar (not all together!!) but not very often.
Charlotte took this action shot, I love to flip pancakes and usually manage not to chuck them on the floor. I really look like I'm concentrating, don't I.
We also made playdough for the first time I felt I should as it's quite expensive to buy and only ends up getting hard and yucky. It was really easy to make I just goggled making playdough and chose a 1 min one which didn't involve heating it up on the stove so that it was easy for the little ones to help with. It is really good and we were very pleased with it and made some lovely aliens.
