Guess what? Its been another cold day here. We've had snow on & off all day - enough to cause panic buying in the local Co-op and for the boys to enjoy snowball fights with their friends at school today.
This was the view that greeted me this morning when I unburied myself from the duvet & blankets;
I still managed to cycle into town today - carefully & even more slowly than normal but I did it. I needed to do a post run and also collect some vital supplies from the supermarket - can't have snow without hot chocolate and marshmallows ;)
Just as I was leaving the postie handed me large, flat parcel - I knew what it was - my handmade Christmas decoration swap parcel from Pene.
Lucky me - look what she made & sent;
Its gorgeous - when she said in an email about the shape of the parcel I kind of hoped that it might be a wreath of some sort and it was and I love it. Thank you Pene very much and also to Betty @ MrsYappy Dog for organising this swap. My parcel to Pene went on its way on Friday so hopefully her postie will soon be knocking at the door.
Whilst browsing my ever growing list of blogs this afternoon, I spotted a lovely giveaway over @ Hapi-ness - lots of crafty things as prizes :)
I wonder what the weather will be like for us tomorrow - the boys are hoping for a day off school.
See you soon

We are snowed in and I am looking after two boys with cabin fever, they go out, get cold, cry, come in, get new clothes and hot chocolate and fight and then want to go out again!
I so want to get on with my making, but couldnt get to the PO and the post man can not get to me!
