A super lovely, crafty mumma fox.

My lovely friend Stacie made this picture for my blog! Isn’t it amazing?! I mentioned it to her one day after she’d already spent weeks working on creating us the most beautiful and creative wedding invitations I could possibly imagine, and the next day she sent me this! She is a super talented craft machine. aesthetically we must be on the same wave length or something, because I adore everything she creates, and anytime I’ve asked her for something, she’s come back at me with exactly what I’d hoped for, but even better than I’d imagined. A little birdy told me she’s working on her own label right now, which I cannot wait to see.

Googah!

We finally have eggs (or ‘Googah!’ as Indie, my girl fox calls them). Not one but three (four if you count the one Indie ate) amazingly, perfectly oval tear drops of pre-embryonic goodness! Now the question is, after what seems like an age of sharing our en suite with chicks and ranting about “those blood baron birds” taking up valuable yard space, what the heck do we do with the goods? Surely after all this time, an ordinary loaf of banana bread, or a simple omelette would taste like a letdown… No, it needs to be something orally orgasmic to be worth cracking these shells… But what damn it?!!

Crafternoon Tea.

I have wondrous friends, who on special occasions (births, weddings etc) produce amazing, handmade gifts as if from thin air. Obviously they’re wickedly talented humans and organise their time much better than I, and their finished products are so filled with love, because obviously they’ve put so much into them themselves! So I’ve decided handmade is the way to go, unfortunately I rarely find the time to make breakfast let alone make actual, lasting, pretty things (other than my babies of course..) Thus crafternoon tea is born! Or “craftea” as my best friend likes to call it. It’s a rare and wondrous occasion that occurs when both my small foxes are sleeping at the same time! I think a weekly “craftea” time slot, complete with baked goods, delicious tea and ridiculously talented friends might be in order.
