I've just realised it's been a while since I updated my blog, even though I've been working on several craft projects!
So, here's an update on our Alphabet Adventure - going back some time now!
In May, we went to see "Cinderella" the Ballet at the theatre in town (which was so awesome we're going back to see the same company perform "The Nutcracker" in November =D). As well as using photographs and our tickets, I added the customary label and some diet cut ballet shoes. I mounted them on some tissue paper - which is supposed to look like a shoe box, in case you didn't get that! - and added some pearls and ribbon.

In the Easter holidays, my husband, sister-in-law and her husband (my brother-in-law? Does that work? Let's say yes...!) decided to try a pub quiz. Long story short: it was aimed at a slightly *ahem* older audience and we came last. But only just!!! Great quiz though - I'd do it again for a giggle. Remind me to watch more UK TV Gold first though...

One weekend when we were blessed with glorious weather, Bren and I had planned to go out for a picnic. You know, somewhere scenic. Except he became so absorbed in cutting the grass by the time he was finished I was majorly hangry, so we had our picnic in the back garden instead! Bonus was that Millie and Mollie could join the picnic too!

Lastly, we went to the Waffle House restaurant in St. Albans. It's set in an old water mill. They serve savoury and sweet waffles. We both had French Onion Soup to start and then a white chocolate and mousse waffle for pudding (Bren copied me! haha) Was a tasty way to spend an afternoon, even if the queues to get in were long!

That's all I have for now. Coming up in the possibly-near-future: J is for Jazz, C is for Carnival and V is for Vintage cinema.
