I'm so lucky, we have our dream car - a green Nissan Figaro who we call Figgy!

My top tip if you do make macaroons is to blitz together the icing sugar and ground almonds in a blender to get the mixture really fine and smooth. Then sieve it into a bowl!

If you have a pair of shoes that are starting to look a bit scuffed up, you could cover them with the ribbon by cutting strips and sticking them down with mod podge

I love anything you can sit in the park with, or sit outside cafes and craft. So lots of knitting, crochet, hand sewing or drawing

That looks amazing. I always find cake decorating so stressful and it usually turns out quite messy.

It was my Nana's 90th birthday a few weeks ago so I attempted to make her a pretty cake with the Northern Lights on. I used an airbrush kit to spray on the food colouring and that worked really well.

I love baking brownies too - they're just so quick and always turn out great.

If I'm feeling fancy, I'll sometimes whip up a batch of macaroons. Tom got me a mixer for Christmas, so now I can even make them while getting ready for a party at the same time - I like to call it my party trick!

Aww I love that your doggy has a pet fireman - did you knit it for him?

Winnie is still adorable. Bobbin's going through her terrible toddler phase too - pom poms don't stand a chance!

My everyday camera is a Canon Eos M. It's a mirrorless camera, so it's small enough to cart around all the time in my handbag, but you can change lenses if you want to go out on a photo taking day with a big lens. I mainly just use it on auto but I like that you can do all the manual stuff too.

I love my Instax too but I always forget to take it out with me. I topped up on cheap film when I was in Japan so I should use it more!

Yum, I made Spaghetti Aglio E Olio tonight and Mussel Vongole the other night. I'll see if I can make a vegetarian version of Beef Braciole next

I'm tempting by the SMEG blender but it might just be because it's super cute. Has anyone tried one?

I made a steampunk eyepatch for La Carmina a while ago and used a battery powered LED to light it up. It was a little fiddly but she could just insert and remove the battery to turn it on and off.

I'd love to find out if there are other options too though!
