La Muis: October 2008
http://lamuis.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 7 October 2008. We're roasting our own coffee - ooh la la! We like coffee, and although we aren't afficionados by any stretch of the imagination, we do have a real coffee machine, and a grinder, and we drink a lot of coffee now we're at home all day. We also like to eat, and drink responsibly, so when we couldn't find organic and. Fair trade coffee beans in our local natuurwinkel (health food shop), we were a bit perturbed. First dilemma, what beans shall we buy? We went online to Ongebrand.

La Muis: Dressmaking Fail
http://lamuis.blogspot.com/2008/11/dressmaking-fail.html
Friday, 14 November 2008. This week I've been making a dress to wear to Ben's birthday bash on Friday night, but I failed. It's too small, and tight, and makes me look like a sausage. I followed the 'instructions' in a book called 'Yeah! I Made It Myself', but it all went wrong because the book only shows a little hand-drawn picture with the measurements, so I had to make my own pattern and there was too much guess work involved. Lesson learned = use shop bought patterns. Posted by Deborah Blench.

La Muis: September 2008
http://lamuis.blogspot.com/2008_09_01_archive.html
Saturday, 27 September 2008. There's a new Etsy. In town and it's called Folksy. Is based in the UK, so is a bit more European than Etsy, and is a bit closer to home, which means less postage costs. These websites are great if you know what to buy for someone, but can't find it in quite the right style. Handmade is always cooler in my eyes. Posted by Deborah Blench. Sunday, 21 September 2008. So, I've decided to call the business 'Cake Hole', and have set up this blog. Which I'm quite proud of. Liked it,...

La Muis: Flowers
http://lamuis.blogspot.com/2008/11/flowers.html
Friday, 7 November 2008. I got flowers today! They were from the bank, admittedly, to apologise for overcharging me, but they paid the money back and, aw, shucks, they shouldn't have. Very nice, but they're still a bad bank ;). Posted by Deborah Blench. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). On the plus side.

La Muis: Body Image
http://lamuis.blogspot.com/2008/09/body-image.html
Thursday, 18 September 2008. I've been watching a great four part series of documentaries in which Dawn Porter, an investigative journalist, deals with womens' issues. So far I've watched her get investigate the myths and stereotypes surrounding lesbianism in Dawn Goes Lesbain,. At some of the things people conveniently don't tell you about giving birth in Dawn Gets a Baby. Then last night I watched Dawn Gets Naked. Which dealt with femal body image. What an eye-opener! If you want to watch it, you'll ha...

La Muis: August 2008
http://lamuis.blogspot.com/2008_08_01_archive.html
Tuesday, 26 August 2008. Today I woke up feeling a bit down, so I made a cake to cheer myself up. I picked a delicious sounding recipe from The Cranks Bible, ignored the instructions about a 28" by 11" cake tin (I only have 20" by 8") and got to it. I've been looking forward to delving into my newly formed baking cupboard, which looks lovely, but I was also a little aprehensive, because I'm not very good at baking. It all started so well. Here I am doing some mixing:. Too small. I piled all. It's good to...
