Hello chumps,
I hope you are all well, I am coming down with something as I type, you know – sore throat, splitting headache and general knocked out feeling? I’ve already taken my first dose of All in One and am waiting for it to kick in so if I go all weird on you – it’s the drugs I promise.
My week has been massively busy, so busy I had to miss out on the very successful BritMums Social Media meet up which I’ve heard was a scream. There’s already one planned for YORK soon so watch out for more information coming soon. However all is not lost as tomorrow I am meeting a group of bloggers for a meeting in the London Secret Room, you’ve never heard of it? Ohhh go Google, it’s all about chocolate. Can you imagine 20+ bloggers in a room filled with chocolate? *sigh*
It’s also been a one step forward, two steps back week, I ordered some bridal shoes off the net and they’re too small, beautiful but too small so now the rigmarole of re-packing them, posting them off and hoping I get a bigger pair in return and a huge thanks to everyone who chipped in my twitter discussion about which candy to order for the Candy Bar. That was a sugar rush!
My Best Post of The Week has to be my Kids Get Arty one as it’s been months I wanted to join in and have never got round to it. This year I set some time aside and enjoyed an hour with the girls making a Rainbow Sun, I can’t tell you how proud I was of my efforts and am resolving to do this again in March when the next Kids Get Arty is planned, check out Red Ted Art’s blog for more details if you’d like to join in too. I already know the artist I want to use too.
Which was your favourite post this week? Have you got one you’re really proud of and want to shout out once more? Please add the link below and try to visit another couple of posts linked up to share a bit of comment love and find new blogs.
Have a great week and next time we speak it’ll be February!

All feedback on my latest blog post about becoming a dad is much appreciated – it was written in a sleep-deprived haze but hopefully still makes a vague amount of sense…

Not sure about best this week, but most recent is a nice weekend recipe that is very achievable, even for the severely sleep and time deprived (like me): http://wellwornwhisk.blogspot.co.uk/2013/01/duck-in-plum-sauce-and-broccoli-with.html
