Making biscuits!

Well when your lonely and bored, what better thing to do than make you and your bubs mr tumble shaped bow tie biscuits.

I love making biscuits and she loves eating them too. Just a shame i am not supposed to eat them. But every now and then isn't going to hurt. Tomorrow is the fayre for the village i grew up in, so i decided to add to the cake stall and make biscuits! In fact have more stars to make....... Back shortly!

Finally finished. I made around 25 bow ties and more than enough stars but have halved it so we can have some here. Mr tumble would be proud, haha. Anyway next job when the stars are dry is putting them in bags but, i will have to leave that until morning i am afraid. As well as the laundry. I am shattered.

With biscuits made i am off to sleep! Oh dear, nearly wrote a poem there. Whoops. Maybe next time!

Cookied out!

I would write a recipe, but i am so used to chucking stuff in, i do not actually know the quantity! Silly me

In the night garden? More like in the drug fuelled night off.

My daughter loves 'In the night garden', its peaceful, calming and very colourful. But what the hell is it about. Seriously? I feel like i am on the biggest drug fest ever. Its odd. Its like someone gave you a ruffie and your seeing the world through the eyes of the writer on a mad trip. I often wonder what the characters are doing? As they all seem mental.
Iggle piggle and upsy daisy are cute, very annoying, and not really teaching kids anything as iggle piggles a mute, and upsy daisy says her name over and over again with the addition of "do" sometimes. But when you start getting down to makka pakka it starts getting strange. Personally this character is slightly racist in my view, as the rhyme says "wakka pakka" and sometimes you'll hear it from the character itself. Which isn't a good when your tryibg to bring your kids up properly. (oh dear the next door neighbours are fighting again)

Its such an odd program with so many continuity problems it would cause world war 3, in a media class. For a starters, the sizing of the ninky nonk, one minute its large, the next its tiny. The characters chase it and its tiny, then you next see then getting into the ninky nonk to find its suddenly twice as big as the characters. Where is the flow in continuity there. Whats it teachin our children that size isn't overly important when it comes to things. You have somehow explain the difference once your child is older.

I would love to know what this program is about. It makes no sense. Kids love it, adults loathe it. But it works. It works so well. My daughter loves it, and makes it perfect bedtime routine at the end of it. But if i am completely honest I LOATHE IT!
