Happy Valentines Day.


I aspire to be a domestic goddess, I fail miserably, but I try. The cooking, baking, mothering, I can do. It's the cleaning and organisation that lets me down every time. I just cant motivate myself to clean up after people who could and should be doing it themselves.

On the baking front, I made my lovely man a heart shaped devils food cake, and my youngest boy helped decorate it with pink and white mini marshmallows, there would have been a photo, but to be honest, he made quite a mess of it, well, he is only 2 and a half. His daddy loved it anyway.

Had hoped to go out for a family walk but weather was just too miserable and wet, so hopefully tomorrow. We don't usually bother with Valentines day, it always seems so convoluted and commercialised, this year however, since we completely forgot our anniversary, we thought we'd do something, have made cards with the kids etc, as i think it should be about family love as well as romantic love. We all had a good day anyway. All of my boys are suitably filled up with chocolate cake and brownies, with a ham salad for dinner to balance it out. And strawberries and blueberries for desert. Now, i am off for some "me" time, i need to dye my hair. lol. Hope everyone had a wonderful day, romantic or not.
