One two three
I read somewhere, that around one month priory to your birthday you’re supposed to take it all easy, as apparently it’s quite a serious time, where no big decisions, plans, acts are recommended… It’s all about preserving, thinking, charging up and leaving the lot for latter. And all of the above was crossed over in my life last week. Will report later if that turned to be a good thing. Phew. Any volunteers to keep fingers crossed for me?
Here are a couple of things I’m allowed to talk about:
I’ve managed to bake 53 cookie medals (had to modify the recipe to use far less sugar and add some lovely spices) for kids from my son’s school for a fun sporty afternoon in a park that me and my darling have pooled together (I’m too proud to not to mention it – sorry!!! 
).
And yes, at last, I’ve made toys and they are not bears!
What do you think? Opinions needed 
I think I’m going to explore more outside the teddy theme That doesn’t mean I’m saying ‘no more’ to my grizzly bears
OK. That will have to be it for now. Will be back next week. Enjoy yours! x

These elephants are fantastic! So full of character – I adore them (but then I adore your bears too!).

Cookies and bagles all look so yummy. Want a bread machine!
Your elephants are so well made (well having Simas, I am not surprised). Is it filled with soft or hard filling? The colour of the ear flap all matches with the fabric. I think they are wonderful and it will do very well!!

I love your cute elephants and the cookie medals are very impressive – all 53 of them – that’s a lot of baking! Hope the finger crossing has worked out!

Just discovered your pretty blog, excellent photos, and Etsy shop. How wonderful your bagels turned out! Your photography is so beautiful. Hope you will make some more bears soon. Those medal cookies are quite super!
