Brunch, Crafting and Cupcakes


This week went by very quickly.  Much quicker than usual.  We're half way through this half term already. Only 3 more weeks until the April holiday.  We're not going away anywhere, and will be cat sitting for some friends who live in our compound. They have just rescued a third cat, so it should be fun.

This week, I had my craft group over one evening.  One of the group members is the one who fostered our Sooty cat when he was a tiny abandoned kitten.  He was very friendly towards his foster mum, so I think he remembered her.  He decided to take a nap in her handbag, and was fussing about the group all evening. Very unusual for our mostly unsociable Sooty!

On Saturday, I went for brunch at the Bull&Claw with my office friends, which was lovely. It was a rainy, miserable day, so it was nice to get out and do something fun.  Matt very much enjoyed his lazy day on the playstation.

Today, Matt is playing football for the England team (against the Welsh team), and i'm having my lazy day with the kitties, and waiting for two food shops to be delivered.  The weather at the moment seems to be either heavy rain, or awful pollution, since the February holiday, so everyone is just waiting for the weather to clear, and in the meantime, not doing much of anything.  Matt did go to the pub on Friday night too.


Friday was international women's day.  We celebrated at school with cupcakes, and by giving out 4 school houses joint, famous leaders for the week.  Our leaders are all male (Shakleton, Wing, Anand and Howard), but this week we also had Pankhurst, Parks and two Chinese Nobel prize winners from throughout history.



We, of course had some lovely chocolate pancakes on Tuesday made by Matt, who is a whiz in the kitchen
