Green Monkey

Hello Kittens!

I'm having a delightful weekend looking after my mama's kitties with my dear Chantal.

We've been desperately trying to get uni work done and we did okaaayyy but all we've been doing is watching the food network, it's wedding cake special!

They're insaaaaaane.

We're going to watch fear and loathing in Las Vegas soon and we're drinking Green Monkeys.

A very classy mix of blue smirnoff, smirnoff ice and orange barcadi breezer.

so bright.

I'm also making some crochet bracelets for my Etsy shop

they will be up soon for a looky.

until then here are some beauties:

I am in love with these particular beasts!:

Cakes and Lambs

It's been a little while so I'm going to do a few updates.

I may not have told you before but I have a bit of an obsession with baking at the moment. I bake on average one cake per week (minimum) I can't figure out whether it's a healthy habit or extremely unhealthy. I hardly even eat the cakes! It's usually friends or the boy eating my cake.

Anyhow, here is the latest installment of my un/healthy addiction.

I would give the recipe but I don't measure my ingredients. I just chuck it all in and hope for the best. This one was just a plain victoria sponge with buttercream and raspberry jam.

. . .

My mum, brother's fiancee and I also went to a cute farm called Holmbush it was adorable! I saw two lambs being born and lots of lovely farm animals and we went on a tractor ride. I love springtime ^.^

How lovely!

Bye bye kittens (lambs)

In Love

If anyone happens to want to buy me these I would be ever so grateful

Springtime cutes and pretties

I've been up since 6.30 this morning, which doesn't actually exist as a time for me.

But I feel really refreshed. We drove by the sea and it's a beautiful day.

I thought I might share this collection of cute spring time things.

Birdhouse, Shoe, Nails, Trowels, Pillow, Shorts, Strawberry yummies, Deer Tray

Here is a lovely springtime song to leave you with. Enjoy the weather kittens.

New Baby

I haven't had much success with blogging. As with many projects I generally begin and all is well until it's dropped and forgotten about forever.

I hope this doesn't happen with this blog.

Today of all days seemed like the right time to start.

I left my part-time job in the Lovely Dirty Harry Brighton to free up time to pursue crafty dreams whilst not affecting my studies at Uni. So this blog will mainly be about my crafts, interesting things of the day, Brighton events, Fashion, baking, pin-up modelling and anything else that takes my fancy.

Here are some facts about myself,

I will, for now, go by the name of Betsy Mittens.

I study English Language and Media in my 2nd year at Brighton University.

I live with my boyfriend and two cats 2 minutes from the sea in the centre of my favourite place in England, Brighton.

I have big dreams and I hope that this is the beginning of something magical.

Oh, and right now my hair is lavender (I feel like a mythical beast).

Hope that you enjoy it, and may this blog survive.

Bye for now Kittens,

Betsy Mittens
