It's almost Easter and every year, I bake up a batch of my Nana's awesome Chocolate Nests. They're my absolute favourite Easter treat and I crave them throughout the year.

I made lots of mini ones too so I could package them up and give some to our friends.

My Grandad was Russian and used to eat borsch for lunch when I was little, which I always thought looked like a bowl of blood. Inspired, I decided to make my own baby borsch version for lunch today with beetroot, mint and yogurt. I added a bit of wasabi to give it a kick and I can definitely see the appeal of beetroot soup.

Keava & Rosa's wedding invitation arrived and it's absolutely gorgeous with a musical ribbon, heart shaped button and love heart seal on the envelope.

I was sending back our RSVP today and wanted to send a little gift. Keava treated me to this gorgeous lace when we were at Hobbycraft, so I thought it would be nice to make them some necklaces.

I made Keava a lace collar and Rosa a choker. They both have cameos with pressed flowers in and I wanted them to look similar but not identical.
