Making a ‘cake’ for the cats

Even though it's not a typical cake, I appreciate that there's a good proportion of cat food in it. I decided to try out just the cake part to see if the cats enjoyed it.

Mini pizza time

Whilst I was on holiday from work, I treated us to homemade mini pizzas. My vision was Chicago Town mini thick crust pizzas. And, you can see the result: they rose so well! And, they're so cute with how tiny they are! I used 300g of flour to make the dough. So, even though they...

My 2021 reset for a fab 2022 ✨

I wanted to have a lifestyle cleanse to kickstart the new year prepped and ready to have a happy, healthy and productive 2022. Declutter I went through my clothes since I've bought a few pieces this year. I decluttered a dress that is too short on me and some itchy leggings. I don't have that...

Making Christmas decorations 🎄

We decorated our little Christmas tree at the weekend, and we kept up our tradition (of 2 years now) of making Christmas decorations. I went with a cat theme again (which won't be a surprise to you!). It probably could've done with some whiskers, or ears poking through the hood, but that would've been too...

Pumpkin carving 🎃

It’s that time of year again when we’ve carved ourselves some spooky pumpkins. Mine’s meant to be the Cheshire Cat (more similar to the live action than the animated one) because I’m keeping up my cat theme. The teeth were so fiddly and I didn’t notice when I started but it must have taken at...

I tried making a puzzle feeder for the boys 🐈

This is perhaps an upgrade to the toilet roll tubes with holes in, which keep getting accidentally stood, but the kitties still enjoy having snacks out of them. I'd seen a board puzzle feeder, which I thought would be lots of fun for our baby cats, but it was kinda expensive, So, of course, I...

I made little sponge ball toys for the kitties 🐈

Our cats both love playing with their red sponge ball. But they've played with it so much that it's lost its smooth roundness and is now a pretty dishevelled disc. None of my local pet stores seem to sell sponge balls, so I ventured into making some instead. If you want to try making some,...

DIY cat toy

I made some puzzle feeders for out two cats so that they could have some fun when eating and wouldn't just wolf down a handful of cat biscuits all at once. I think toilet tube puzzle feeders are fairly common and very easy to make, and here's how I made mine. Choose your not sponsored...

Reflecting on 2020 ✨

As shocking of a year it's been, it's important to appreciate the good times. I thought I'd share a few good and bad moments and some stuff I'm looking forward to. I'd love to hear what you've been up to this year too! xo The Good We did manage a mini holiday in Glasgow at...

Decorating the Christmas cake ❄️

It's not long now before we can grab a slice and actually find out how it tastes! I just used Morrisons pre-made marzipan and icing as it's vegan, and I wouldn't know the first thing about making them myself! I went with traditional raspberry jam to glue down the marzipan to the cake. I did...
