Snapshop of my week...

I am hoping to use this once a week post as like a diary of my week, filling you in on all the little bits in between. This week I actually had a week off work and therefore done more than I usually would. So this is a big post :)
Here goes...
Well what a week I have had! The beginning of the week was just crafting, knitting, crochet, some baking etc. I have found the most amazing cupcake recipe, works great every time which for me is a big thing! I was also given a recipe for honeycomb and had a go at that, its really easy, just make sure you don't burn your sugar or you will regret it! Then on Thursday I went to the National Memorial Arboretum in Staffordshire. It is a memorial park for everyone in the UK who has died since 1945. It was a really moving place, and fairly new. There is one huge memorial which contains the names of everyone who has died since 1945, reading through that took a looooong time but it was really good to know. There are also many many other memorials, the one I really liked I don't even know who it was for, but it was a beautiful tree made from plastic and there were little metal leaves hanging off it each with a name of someone on it. It was beautiful and in the wind the leaves all clinked together making a lovely noise. Friday I went to the Coventry Transport Museum as I had heard that they had an exhibition on about Surf vehicles and surf history by the Museum of British Surfing. It was only small but it was great to find out about vehicles other than just the VW Campervan that everyone knows and loves. It closes soon but I would advise people to go...
Hope your week has been just as great :)
