Stencil onto wood
Last year I made up one of these, the design was slightly different, and it was white on wood.
This one is gold, translucent, onto wood. It looks at lot softer than the white. I wish I had rather made it up in white. Too late, she cried. I'm not cutting it all out again ;-)
Okay, it's no big deal really, you just stick your design onto the wood with spray glue, cut along the design then pull off the area you want in colour. Spray lightly and voila! I coat it with a layer of varnish.

Baking and caking
My sister-in-law made this delicious lemon drizzle cake. We also got some slices to take home.
On Saturday for lunch I made the roasted vegetable tart, which we had for supper as well.

Sunday with the family
Went down for the day to be with my family, but most of my time was spent with my nieces. They were in and out the tent all afternoon. The static in the tent made their hair stand on end. And there were at least 4 wardrobe changes. We had a lot of fun.
My poor sister-in-law spent all day creating one masterpiece after the other in her new oven. My brother braaied like we South Africans do on a Sunday.

Saturday afternoon nap
Let sleeping dogs sleep, I say.
It was the long weekend and we were so lazy. A lovely sunny day just reading and napping. Even the dogs.

Oh ye of little faith
In my local Clicks the condoms are stacked side-by-side with the pregnancy test kits.
Planning ahead, or heat of the moment. Pick one or the other ;-)
