Homebaked oat and almond biscuits - yum!

All done

Completed the little sailor man this morning, so cute!





Must just mention the delicious Plum cake I made this weekend from Nigel Slater's book - myself and the girls polished it off between us, perfect with a splosh of natural yoghurt!

Obviously a work in progress, lots of stitching to be done over the weekend, good job the man of the house is away camping with the boys...
