Things That Came Out of Pandora’s Box

Things That Came Out of Pandora’s Box - explains a lot.

Not Disney Princesses

We have discovered the condensed Cinderella and Sleeping Beauty ballets Royal Opera House's YouTube Channel. I think they are better than Disney. Alex wants to know why they aren't wearing the right coloured dresses.

Duvet Skirt

 

The product of my sewing class (thank you again Mum). Look at the fine topstiching! And pleats! Amazing!

Bubble Party

Chickenpox

If you join the dots it makes a picture of Sleeping Beauty. Or so I may tell Alex tomorrow to cheer her up.

Smartie

Alex isn't like a grown up. She doesn't just wolf down a packet of sweets as a guilty pleasure. She likes to sort her treats first. I like the way she has sorted the cool colours and the warm colours together where there weren't three of an individual colour.
