Art Project

For Art homework we had to create, in a group, a 'story sack'' on cells. I had the job of doing a poster and went flat out on it for two weeks then kinda stopped so as a bit of anti - procrastination I am gonna post my work so far. All I need to do now is write the info about the cells. o.O

Back in Business!

Hey hey hey! So after a real long break I have found the time to continue my blog. :D I am currently in Year seven and loving it. However I do get a lot of homework even if it is the holidays and I have a lot of things to do - I;m out with my friends a lot so I don't have all the time in the world. As new year aproaches I have decided to start another almost side-blog. I will be doing one of those 365 photo things. I am currently unsure what I will be doing wether it will be just a portrait every day or a photo of my friends or whatever, anyway if you want to check it out then it is abg365.blogspot.com . 

Thank you & Good night!

My bag hath ARRIVED!

No words needed. C:  

Oh My God!

I have found a simply amazing-amazing-amazing designer! Cath Kidston has competition...
They are called Disaster Design, I saw one of their bags in a shop and fell in love. They only sell wholesale so I searched the inters of the web and found these four loverly satchels  -
Mademoiselle
Vintage Bird Satchel
With Love Satchel
Paper Plane Satchel
With love is especially good.

I really want to buy one for school and well for ..... me. (!gasp) I have the money saved up and they fit A4 soooo no reason why not. :D Mum likes em' as well, they are very pricey so I was surprised. Not that she thinks £40 is expensive for a bag. (lies)

Options!

Another options post. YAYz! Today we made scones, we got three each which wasn't a lot seeing as they were really small but they tasted decent so I'm not complaining. The recipe I think we used was

Ingredients

• 225g/8oz self raising flour
• pinch of salt
• 55g/2oz butter
• 25g/1oz caster sugar
• 150ml/5fl oz milk
• 1 free-range egg, beaten

Preparation method

1. Heat the oven to 220C/425F/Gas 7. Lightly grease a baking sheet.
2. Mix together the flour and salt and rub in the butter.
3. Stir in the sugar and then the milk to get a soft dough.
4. Turn on to a floured work surface and knead very lightly. Pat out to a round 2cm/¾in thick. Use a 5cm/2in cutter to stamp out rounds and place on a baking sheet. Lightly knead together the rest of the dough and stamp out more scones to use it all up.
5. Brush the tops of the scones with the beaten egg. Bake for 12-15 minutes until well risen and golden.
   
   
   
   
   

   
   

   

   
   
   
   

Milkshakes!

Mmm! I tried out a new recipe yesterday and it worked out well so I made a new menu ect. ect and took a photo of said milkshake! The recipe was- (Makes two glasses)
x2 bananas
100ml of yogurt or ice cream (We had no yogurt and ice cream worked.)
200ml milk
1 pint of ice cubes (a pint glass)
2tbsp honey

Put all the ingredients into the blender except the ice and blend till smooth.
Add the ice cubes and pulse for about 30 seconds till smooth.
Enjoy!

All photos are mine in case you had any intention of stealing them. Why? I don't know. Spain was very fun, hot and fun, we stayed for basically 5 days and Saturday morning which was long enough. Can't wait to give Silja her b-day present! Happy times, happy times.
