Catch Up

It's been a couple of weeks since my last post, I've had a few problems with my computer.   Finally here is a catch up on what I've been doing.

 I've made more cakes.  This one's another chocolate one that I made for Mother's Day, and there's a banana one just come out of the oven.  I bought banana's as they are supposed to be good for runner's, but I kept forgetting to eat them!!

 I made my mum a lovely lilac bag for Mother's Day. She came up to visit my nan on the train and so taking flower's back with her on the train wasn't very practical - also a bag lasts longer.

Remember the fabric from the last post, I made myself a gypsy style top from it.

Finally, I have been running - a lot.  After my last race I (stupidly) decided that I would aim for a Half Marathon and my mum's always saying that she never sees me race as she is in Devon and I usually race near my home in Buckinghamshire.  So I entered the Great West Run, which is on 6 May.  I've got my mileage up to 9 miles now, very slowly.  Nest weekend I'm running a race called 'Brill Hilly'. 

I've also ordered some lovely fabric to make some summer shirts.  I'm hoping that with the bank holidays that are coming up, I will be able to find some time to sew properly rather than just running up something quick.
