I love sprin­kles nearly as much as I love bak­ing, every­thing about bak­ing is fun, I love the cake mix­ture (even though if I eat too much I feel very sick and have to lie down for a bit and drink loads of water) and I love the dec­o­rat­ing stage.  I plan to take a cake dec­o­rat­ing course in the sum­mer plus a cook­ery course with the hus­band (he can’t cook, I think it is more along the lines he won’t cook, he can only make two recipes pan­cakes and steak, that is it!).

I have been want­ing to cre­ate this sprin­kles rack for a long time since I saw this post and this one.

We started it the other day, it took me ages to find a good spice rack and the cor­rect jars, when I vis­ited IKEA the other week I found this spice rank and these lovely glass jars, I only brought one (silly me) so will need to go back but what I am think­ing is hav­ing the racks go all up the wall with dif­fer­ent coloured sprin­kles in them.

I think it will really brighten up the kitchen I have a few dif­fer­ent sprin­kles at the moment but I have seen some fab ones on eBay.

What is your spe­cial trick to brighten up your kitchen?

Well I have failed the blog­ging sched­ule this week, well just Review Thurs­day and Fru­gal Fri­day, I am hop­ing to get some­thing out by the end of the day but I have been away for the last cou­ple of days vis­it­ing one of my friends. Isn’t that always the way that life gets in the way

Not a lot really hap­pen­ing at my end, other than my resit is next Wednes­day and I am slowly freak­ing out, and poly­mor­phism is not going into my head! Arugh! I wish this was easy, I wish I did not need to know about all these stu­pid con­di­tional state­ments and higher order func­tions so I am try­ing to make up some say­ings which will hope­fully get this rub­bish in my head.

I am still try­ing to paint the kitchen and under stair area but since the hus­band is off next week then we will hope­fully do that, more excit­ing news I am cur­rently in my wait­ing period and it seems to be drag­ging a bit, I won­der if it works this cycle, who knows, in my head I am already think­ing that it will be neg­a­tive so if it is pos­i­tive I think I might faint or cry or freak out!

My dri­ving test is in about three weeks and I still suck, so I know I will not pass that.. all about pass and fail­ing this month so only time will tell me the truth, it would be amaz­ing to pass my resit and my dri­ving test, and then get a pos­i­tive preg­nancy test but I will keep you updated

I need help, after get­ting the kitchen fit­ted, we have an under the stairs area now which we didn’t have before because of the fridge being there. It now has a shelves and a work­top area but I have no idea how to fix the floor, Any ideas??

Any ideas? Any sug­ges­tions would be great I have to do it myself so it should be inter­est­ing, ha ha, if you want to check out the kitchen progress pho­tos there are now here.

Day two of kitchen fitting!!

Work­tops

Old light switch

I had a man around recently about my kitchen designs, and I really like the style of this one. I asked my friends boyfriend how much it would cost to remove the old one and fit a new one and he has come up with an amaz­ing price, so I told my mother in law today about it and she said go ahead and order the units for the kitchen. I am so excited! It will be fit­ted at the end of June start of July due to my exams for uni­ver­sity being in 6 weeks and my the­ory test is in 5 DAYS! Here are some amaz­ing pic­tures of the design to show you:

This is the style I am going for, I am even going to have the same colour green on the walls, my lime green colour is start­ing to annoy me

Another than that not a lot going on I had the stairs done the other day and fixed the hand rope rail (yay! I am lov­ing using the drill) and we sorted out the fenc­ing in the gar­den too.
