Well, what's the gossip?
I had a lovely holiday in Spain, it was a much prettier place than I had imagined, and I daresay I'll post a mosaic of photos for the curious that will give you the gist of it.
I've moved house, and I'm all safe and sound in my new home, a dear little cottage that I like to think is a bit like the one in the 1995 'Sense and Sensibility' film. Plenty of white wood panelling, and a fireplace is practically every room. A proper little kitchen too which we've managed to fit a dining room table into, and a pantry.
I've started my OU course, which was pretty terrifying at first, but is so far not too difficult. Maybe I'll report differently after the first assessment...
I had my first ever house-warming party, to which I lured people with the promise of a chocolate fountain, and was stunned by the generosity of a relatively new friend who has some game in the cake department. She showed up with this stunner...
And yes, those roses are entirely made of sugar, and she made them with her own fair hands, impressive, no? Needless to say she is baking her own wedding cake (she of the Westonbirt wedding, which has now changed location to a Devon cliff with a private beach for the day).
More soon, there is much to tell, and many blogger-friends to catch up with.

How nice to have you back. I am glad that the move went well and that you have settled. And had a great holiday too. What more could a girl want. Oh yes, a chocolate fountain! Yum yum
What an awesome, AWESOME cake.
Goodness me, what a lot of change at once - new house and new course. It sounds like we need pictures of your lovely new home with its fireplaces, is there much work to be done in it? Hope you settle in really quickly xx
fab cake, thank you so much for your blog comment, see you tomorrow! Lizzie
