Maisie Moo

Here's Maisie helping me with my cross stitching. She's slowly growing up before my eyes but i think she will stay as a wee thing for a while yet. She wont be a big cat.





Maisie enjoying Monzie's surprise gift. So stoked to get my Milo and notebook in the post. :)

Postman Pat & His Black 'n' White Cat



So in a moment of utter boredom i made myself some cupcakes with a Postman Pat theme. Note for future baking: Get measuring cups so you know how much water goes in the icing so as to not make it so runny. Doh.

Stitchin'

So i haven't had a lot of time to stitch in the past few months. Working two jobs takes up a lot of time. I've been working on the same cross stitch since October when i started at Tesco Bank and i hope to have it finished by the new year. It's quite a massive cross stitch which is why it's taking so long. I will post a pic when it is done! In my unemployment stage i did get quite a few cross stitch kits done that i brought over here with me. Pics of these are below.

So this is Christmas

A few pics from my work xmas party. Hands down best xmas party i have been too in my life. It was at Dynamic Earth which is a nature museum down near Holyrood Palace. Beautiful venue and about 400 people attended. It was a great opportunity to get to know my colleagues. I think i rambled on at one stage (after one too many!) on the tastiness of Vegemite as a Vegemite fairy left me a jar of Vegemite on my desk at work the following Monday.

Highlight of the night for me was probably being out at an event that was full of men in kilts. Real men wear kilts, haha!
