Howling at the Moon

If you have younger kids, chances are high you know the movie 'How To Train Your Dragon'. My youngest daugher is nine and she talks about one Toothless almost the whole day through. Toothless is a dragen, without teeth apparantly, and has the lead role in the before mentioned movie. I must say: he's an adoreble little dragon; black, with green eyes, and cute little wings. And he can spit fire. As a surprise I bought a crochet pattern of Toothless to make for my daughter.  ~*~ The Little Llama that I made a couple of weeks ago is featured by Ginx Crafts ! Thank you very much!

Because the window sills are full, I had to change to hanging plants, and besides those two I bought a little terrarium.  For the hanging plants I made hangers myself by r

This weekend my husband's whole family came over for eating, drinking and chatting. Although we had a week of rain every single day, spring is definitely in the air. Flowers and trees are not blooming yet, but it won't be long before they will. I made a delicious Spring Cake, vanilla cake with caramel cream, decorated with Chocolate Flowers, Easter Eggs and  Caramel Crumbs. Do you know anyone who doesn't like caramel? I don't.  ~*~ The Llama that I made last week was featured by Creative Jewish Mom and The Blogger's Life Style ! Thank you, Sara and Kathleen!

The cutest things to make for expecting moms are llamas. I can't stop making them. Here's another one.  The pattern is from the book Animal Friends of Pica Pau by Yan Schenkel . ~*~ The Long Legged Bunny that I made for a colleague was featured by Creative Jewish Mom and Shoppe No.5 this week!
