And the award goes to... moi!
I've given up hope of any form of 'services to motherhood' award (although I may earn a mom-scout badge or two - go and look) but when Jojo gave out these badges, I knew that was one award which had my name written all over it.
And how do I know I deserve one?
Well, that'd be the small matter of:
1. Tardyness in acknowledging goodie parcels
From Tasha - lovely apples and pears fabric in 3 colourways in a little fabric swapette we had going on.
From Paper and String - a gnome-a-licious mini-bag.
I have now won 3 giveaways over at her site (the latest being a name the monkey thing - meet Mustapha Monkey) and if you must-av-one go see her etsy shop.
I need to stop entering giveaways over there, because it's getting embarrassing, but you should go and try your luck.
And to complete the hat-trick, a wonderful parcel from Maxine at Noodles and Doodles, full of the most lovely Easter booty. I can't show you it all because:: you'll be too envious : we've eaten a lot of it : some of the photos didn't come out quite as planned. But look at the amazing twill tape.
And our egg-eating accessories. Don't you need to wear a brooch that co-ordinates with your egg cosy?
2. Uncompleted give-aways
This one is blatant fraud. I hosted a give-away without organizing the package first. Cardinal sin of craft-blogging. My excuse was I could then tailor the contents to the recipient, but instead of doing that promptly, I went shopping. I'm sorry Zoe, next week I promise. And in my own defence, I did find a cute t-shirt.
3. Uncompleted projects.
The trim on my Amy Butler lounge pants, the Spring Bag I promised my mother and have not yet begun, the new kids learn to knit book I have yet to crack the spine of. I need to stop now, because the irony of writing a post about it when I could be achieving some of it is not totally lost on me!
Any guilt you feel the need to offload this sunny Sunday?

Today is Post Office Day :D
You're really busy!!!!
I gotta get me some of those ice cream sandwich presses. My boys would love those for their birthdays. They seem to like cookies and ice cream better than cake anyway.
Love Cherry xx
