Update on my mosaic crochet blanket 🧶
I’ve got to say, anytime I see this one laid out, I’m in awe of the pattern. It’s so easy? And yet, so pretty? 👀
On the one hand, I wanna make loads in different colours. On the other hand, at this stage of the game, each row is like 4000 stitches and oh no.

I have a little niece now and I made her a baby blanket a few months ago which I can finally share online!

Meet our new stairlift. I’ve named him Sebastian after the crab in little mermaid because he looks like a crab 🦀

Okay attempt at local chocolate brands part 2:
I bought three more different ones from our weekly online shop.
I’m hopeful about the Lindt one at least! It would still be cheaper than imported Cadburys so we’ll see how it does.
I will report back.

I went to a restaurant! 1st time I’ve left the house in 4 months!
I also went to the shop next door & got some chocolate.
I don’t like Milka but thought I’d try their chocolate biscuit bar & I got 2 milk chocolate bars to compare to Cadburys cos they’re half the cost of getting Cadburys out here

Mug cake attempt 1: SUCCESS
Ngl. Very surprised & super happy with how wonderfully they came out?
I did a double chocolate mug cake for me, & 2 chocolate coffee mug cakes for parents.
They rose halfway up the mugs, (perfect for a big scoop of ice cream) & they were fluffy & cake like & great?
