I’ve been listening to this song a lot lately… I love The Elected – they’re meloncholy indie pop perfection!
Desire for waffle iron increasing…INCREASING
Can baking improve your mental health? I say, absolutely!
If Barbie looked like a regular 19 year old girl, this is how she’d look. Wow.
Deb at Smitten Kitchen made a delishhh looking peach and pecan crumble. Who says crumbles are just for winter? Yum.
Things may be changing (very very slowly), but generally women are still responsible for the majority of childcare – including taking the career hit during maternity leave. Why do so few men choose to contribute more?
BLUEBERRIES! Michelle from Brown Eyed Baker (an awesome blog) shared her fave blueberry recipes. Dibs on the blueberry bundt cake!
My amazingly talented friend Liana (who will be making my wedding cake!) made these Oatmeal marshmallow sandwich cookies – she even compiled a little guide to how much filling you need – so handy!!
Hi Kerry,
I’ve been reading your blog from the beginning but can’t find your archives anymore. I’d got up to October 2011 and can’t find a way of getting back to it,
Any ideas?
Many thanks

Hi Lizzie – thanks for getting in touch! I’ve added archives by month to the right hand nav (at the bottom) so you can click on the month you want. Hope you like my blog! x
Hi Kerry,
Thank you for that, I shall get back on track!
Have a good week

Thanks Lizzie, you too! Hope they turn out well!
Wow that new Barbie looks ten times better!!! It makes Barbie look like an alien if you ask me π
As for the why don’t men choose to do more? I think it’s partly down to the women in the relationship. My partner and I had the conversation very early on about who/how we would bring up kids. I wasn’t afraid to say that as the main breadwinner it didn’t make sense for me to quit my job. If women really wanted to go back to work and have the husband take on more responsibility I think they would have the conversation and make it happen! There are plenty who have they are just in the minority.
Definitely agree – women need to make it happen!
Hi Kerry!
What a great roundup of links! If only they opened a “Depressed Cake Shop” in the U.S.-definitely agree that baking acts as a therapy of sorts. Can’t go wrong with Smitten Kitchen!
Barbie looks so much better as a regular woman. I wish our children could be playing with this type of barbie instead of the traditional Barbie!
I couldn’t agree more Di! If there were a range of Barbie’s in different body shapes it would be so amazing for kids
Blueberry love! Great post to find Kerry, thank you! Those cookies look pretty special too π
Thanks my dear! Isn’t it genius to show exactly how much filling to put inside?
Love the Barbie article :))
It looks so strange doesn’t it!
