Well, I am home alone to do what I want, when I want and listening to Rock 'n Roll oldies on DSTV!!! Dereck left for Splashy Fenn on Thursday morning and Grant and his friends left at 04h00 this morning.
So, what have I been doing? Making chocolates for Easter, instead of buying them. I have had a lot of fun. It is really time consuming, but I really enjoy it. Once they were all made I put them into little packs with a ribbon and a sticker that I had bought previously.
Here is a sample of a few of them for the adults in the family ...
I also made a large hollow bunnie, wrapped it in cellphane and put it in a little basket and filled the basket with some of the above small chocolates and then wrapped the whole thing in cellophane. This is for Reg and Louisa (the Run/Walk for Life Managers) (Reg's nickname is "Bunnie"). I also made a card which looks like this ...
And what am I going to do next? I have bought some nice plastic boxes and am going to pack all my stamps and other scrapping things that are currently in my cupboard in them, so that I can clear the cupboard, get it dismantled and then have them rebuilt in a different place in the room.
So, watch the blog for some updates on my "Craft Room" makeover!!

Those chocolate baggies sure look yummy, busy girl.
As for the card it is to cute for words.
Now, I see the Easter Bunny's mom has been quite busy this Easter weekend ... creating lots of yummies for the baby bunnies ... you seem to amaze me more and more with your huge variety of cooking skills. By now all those containers have probably been organised beyond perfection. Enjoy the rest of your precious me-time this Easter weekend.
