Daisy Scented Dreams: May 2014
http://daisyscenteddreams.blogspot.com/2014_05_01_archive.html
Sunday, May 4, 2014. A poem for my sweet boy. Tomorrow, my maternity leave ends. I wrote the following for my Liam. I will hold you close against my heart. Kiss your cheek, and in your softness feel at peace. Hold you close and breathe you in, deeply, sweetly. I will feel your hand against my skin. Small and trusting, safe and warm. And feel your fingers stroke me. With love and gentleness. On your breath, the sweet scent of my milk. Rising like a promise, like a poem. Hold you, nourish you, keep you safe.

Daisy Scented Dreams: January 2014
http://daisyscenteddreams.blogspot.com/2014_01_01_archive.html
Monday, January 27, 2014. Staying awake all night in my early 20's looked like this:. Example 1: Uni assignment due in three days, oh my god! Consume Diet Coke while staring at computer screen. Eventually decide to go to bed and work on it in the morning as far too tired now. Go to bed, be unable to sleep due to caffeine. Lie there, jittery and anxious. Feel alone. Example 2: Drinks. Many. Ah, to be 22 again. World of pain to follow. Feel alone in my misery. And the best part? I just put him into his own...

Monday, August 5, 2013. Well, I started writing the following on the 23rd of July and am only just now getting back to it.which sums up how busy it is having a newborn! I was very spoilt by my lovely man.I am now the proud owner of an iPhone, for one thing. For the past few years I have been saying "I don't need a fancy-pants touch screen phone! I'm happy with my little Nokia which has actual buttons! Seeing this face makes it all worthwhile, however. Subscribe to: Posts (Atom). View my complete profile.

Daisy Scented Dreams: April 2014
http://daisyscenteddreams.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Thursday, April 17, 2014. The five second rule gone wrong. Chocolate and I am going to eat it, damn it. However, I may have recently taken things too far. We crunched into them as we continued watching (look, I just said it was 'a movie' but we may have been watching Titanic. Completely without thinking, I grabbed it and put it in my mouth, only to discover to my dawning horror that it was soggy. Catinterested.sitting next to me.oh God. Saturday, April 5, 2014. Having a pay check. Yep. I put that...Momen...

Daisy Scented Dreams: November 2013
http://daisyscenteddreams.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Friday, November 1, 2013. Beneath the ripples of my secret heart. I feel the all-consuming weariness of month after month of shattered sleep. This is your fault. No one else's baby wakes up eight times a night. You have done something wrong. You must have done something wrong to cause his sleeping issues. It's all your fault. The baby naps in his bed, mid morning, after a forty minute battle to settle him. I sit on the couch and close my eyes. I try to rest. Keep it perfect, please. The words of my harsh...

Daisy Scented Dreams: December 2014
http://daisyscenteddreams.blogspot.com/2014_12_01_archive.html
Wednesday, December 17, 2014. Let me explain. No, there is too much. Let me sum up. Okay, so the title of this post is a quote from one of my all time favourite movie characters, Inigo Montoya, from my all time favourite movie, The Princess Bride. (If you haven't seen it, I question whether we can be friends.). It seems fairly apt given that I have neglected my blog for so long and way too much has happened to cover in detail. So instead I will give a brief summary. It's nearly holiday time.

http://innerearthsoaps.blogspot.com/2010_06_01_archive.html
Luxury artisan soaps with signature fragrance blends. Handmade in Sydney, Australia. Wednesday, June 9, 2010. Soap Techniques: Swirling for Beginners. There are lots of different methods around for swirling soap, but one of my favourite, and I think easiest, ways to do this is an In The Pot (ITP) Swirl. Tips for a great ITP Swirl:. 1) After you have mixed the oils and lye water, bring your raw soap to a *light* trace. Every batch will be different, but for me this is about 3-4 quick bursts using the ...

Luxury artisan soaps with signature fragrance blends. Handmade in Sydney, Australia. Friday, July 9, 2010. Layering your soap can make for a pretty design, and is also a good way to achieve a nice-looking soap when if you are using a fragrance oil that moves quickly, because each layer requires a separate trace. 1) Before beginning your batch of soap, weigh your empty soap pot. Write it down on a piece of paper for later. 2) Line your mould and prepare your oils, lye and water as per normal. 8) Repeat st...
