I remember this video from Sesame Street so vividly & I can practically taste crayons when I'm watching it now.

An excuse for cupcakes...


I was extremely lucky to receive this lovely vegan cupcake stand from my boy for my birthday last month. It sits pride of place on our kitchen window sill.


It comes all the way from Atlanta and is made by Vegan Dish. I have admired her work for a while, dreaming of owning some pieces, like the starter kits-

A word of advice to etsy lovers out there- let your boyfriend/ husband/ Mum etc know about etsy favorites & how to view yours. You won't be disappointed!

I also received a Belle & Boo tote & this gorgeous Feist poster, just waiting to have it framed, it's going to look fantastic in my lounge! I'm feeling very lucky & spoilt. :)

Preheat oven to 180°. Line a 9 x 13" baking pan with baking paper. Combine crust ingredients and press into pan. Bake for 20 minutes (or until set). While baking, mash the banana add lemon juice to banana & blend with a wand blender until foamy. Add the remainder of the ingredients (through flour) and mix together. Pour over the crust, and bake 20 minutes more, or until set. Cool. Sift powdered sugar on top, if you'd like, and enjoy the trip down memory lane!

What I wore today

All you folks out there who read and write blogs are probably all too familiar with "what I wore today" and variations on the idea of posting pictures of ones "everyday" attire, but have you seen the drawings only version? It's brilliant! And there are some very very talented people contributing. Here are some of my favorites-
