Nicola and Roel

Finally ... the start of my creations from camp.

My cousin Nicola got married to Roel in December 2006 and I offered to do a wedding album for a wedding present for them. Now, I didn't actually get the photos until 2007 but still, I do think that I may have taken a little long to complete the gift! I finally got my bum into gear at camp and finished the last 13 out of 20 pages that I had to do.

I am very happy with the resulting album, I hadn't done a wedding album before. I kept it simple using black, white and the pale pink taken from the baby roses in Nicola's bouquet, the same font throughout and the same stamp on many of the pages.

Lemonade

Yum! I haven't made Miss Wendy's lemonade for ages! But it seemed to be the day for it when I woke up with a nasty cough and sore throat and then when I got home from work the lemon fairy (my landlord) had been and there was a pile of lemons on my steps.

So peel, cut, juice, measure and mix ...

Then the discovery that I need to buy more bottles ... these are the last I have. The OCD in me has huge issues with just putting the lemonade in a jug in the fridge, I need the bottles to make it right!

I know that for now I just have to deal with it but I will probably buy some more bottles soon ... how can I share the lemonade love without bottles? and anyway summer is coming and I will need bottles for tomato sauce ... yes, that is good justification, that will do it. I don't know where I will find space for them in my little flat but they have been justified now.

Anyway ... now I am sitting down enjoying a soothing mug of hot Miss Wendy's lemonade, the best medicine for a sore throat.
