Christmas cakes

 
Hello all, hope you're having a nice day
 
I set out in 2013 to create more cakes to add to my portfolio and hopefully expand my skills. I had 4 cake orders 3 sponge and one fruit.
 


 
(only 3 photos as I did 2 Santa faces)
 
I'm really please with the work that I have done and it was a tough few days getting them all done in time for Christmas but I'm glad I took on the work and hopefully this year is going to be bigger and better :)
 
I've just bought myself a new mixer too so I hope to write a review on that once I have thoroughly tested it and I also want to do a post on my cake portfolio so far, more for myself than anything as it will be nice to see all the pictures together.
 
talk soon :) xx

Weight Loss #7

 
 
Hello fellow slimmers,
 
I'm going to have to admit I'm not doing so well, the festive season is starting to get to me lol
 
Weigh in update: +1b
 
It could be worse but yet again I'm yo-yoing.
I suppose all you can do this time of year is try your best so if I manage to stick around the same weight give or take a pound then I suppose that's some kind of success but really I ought to keep in mind that Christmas is only one day and not a whole month and it also isn't a reason to stuff myself silly.
 
I really would like to end the year in the next stone bracket which is only 5lb away and I have 4 weigh ins left before the end of the year so I could do this if I really tried.
 
Well I'm not going to lie I don't think this is going to happen but I can give it a go.
 
Has anyone else got a goal they would like to achieve by the end of the year? Let me know :)
 
Talk soon x

To do lists...

 
Good morning :) I've decided it time to get organised...

My mind gets a bit muddled with all the things I'd like to achieve and I end up half doing things or over thinking them and never actually doing anything so I thought I'd write some things down.
 
So I've been thinking there are a few projects I want to achieve over the upcoming months. Some are achievable and some will spill over into next year but its good to have something to work towards plus with having this blog now it will be good to see it in writing and refer back to.

So I would like to achieve:

  • A daily schedule for me and my little boy
  • Home made Christmas baskets for presents
  • Decorating various rooms in the house
  • Reorganising rooms
  • Get organised for Christmas
  • Make more cakes for my portfolio
  • Do my food hygiene course
  • Get to my goal weight
  • Sort out a 30 things by 30 list
  • Do some autumn activities with my little boy
     
 These might not be anything mind blowing but they are things on my agenda. I may add more to it yet :)

If anyone is reading this do you have lists like this? And do you have any things you would like to accomplish before the end of the year or even the end of the week :) Please share with me as it may inspire other things for me to do, maybe something more adventurous...

Talk soon x
