Spring!!!!

Yay! What a lovely spring day!
I spent quite a bit of time outside today, pity it was hanging washing! But I must admit it probably took me twice as long as I kept wandering off to look at the garden!
The flowers are out in full bloom, and although it's all a bit overgrown, it's looking nice and green and colorful!

Popcorn- the old fashion way....

I just fancied some popcorn! But I don't own a popcorn maker- so the old fashion way it had to be!!
You know, the old sauce pan on the cook top way!
The boys thought it was great, getting excited at every pop!
Once we had a big bowl full we decided on making different flavors. One lot plain- with just a touch of butter, one lot icing sugar - just like I used to have as a kid, and one lot caramel.
That was the one I was most excited about. I've actually never made caramel before! So I just mixed sugar, honey and butter together, I don't think that's quite right, but it worked, and it tasted delicious!
Now I kinda feel sick from eating too much!

More owls!

 
Good Morning!
So I've been working on a few more owls this morning! These two are mini owls. Both made from recycled materials!
Still a few more just waiting to be stuffed!

Owl-ing!

Meet some of my new owls!

These little cuties have been made from tea towels and recycled fabrics and buttons.
