A Wee Jaunt

Well I had to drop Graham off at the heliport today, so seeing I was out the west side of the city anyway, I decided I'd be as well treat myself to a wee jaunt out to Alford, and my favourite wee craft shop - Simply Create. And wow, Jacqui has loads of new stuff - but they are all very naughty goodies and quite a few of them jumped into my basket and now my purse is a whole lot lighter. 
I bought some gorgeous papers: Bo Bunny Jazmyne and Double Dot, Jillibean Soup's Old World Cabbage Stew (which is wayyyyyyyyyyyyyy prettier than it sounds lol) , Making Memories' {Note}worthy, an EK Success binding edge punch, Distress Ink, Hero Arts stamps and some pins. 
Unfortunately Jacqui wasn't in, but I'm glad her son was - cos I'm too short to reach the Hero Arts stamps I was after lol

I had to take Faith with me, as she's off playgroup with a bit of a bug and a very dodgy bottom! So she managed to find this wee deckchair on wheels that she thought would make a good trolley and pushed all round the shop. Then she decided the book rings made good bangles, so she put on about 40 of them so they were right up her arm lol
 So she had almost as much fun as I did - she just loved your wee button topiary and the toadstool pin cushion  Jacqui!!

As I wasn't too long in Simply Create, we went over to Torphins and dropped in on my mum and dad. Dad had been away at his cardiac class and phoned on his way home to ask if mum wanted anything from the baker - so I got to order some of their fab baps and rowies. When I got to mum's she was in the middle of baking cakes and bannocks for the bowling club - so I got some of them too - RESULT!
So that's us just home - just enough time for a cuppy tea and one or two of mum's cakes before I have to go pick up Willow and Scott from school. Am hoping they'll go to bed at a decent time so I can play with my new goodies
