The Cake 😍 I wanted to make something fun for E

The Cake 😍 I wanted to make something fun for Eli’s 1st birthday cake, full of sugar, colourful, and a bit of a challenge. 🎂 The @milkbarstore birthday cake was the perfect recipe! After doing a practice run the other week I decided to make a few changes and added another layer, made cake crumbs for the top and doubled up on frosting 🤪 The process is pretty involved and I did a stage each day (you can refrigerate and freeze 👍🏻), and I’m so pleased with how it turned out! Who knows what cake he’s going to request next year, hopefully something equally as fun 🎉

Cake is very serious business with you’re ONE! We had a wonderful day celebrating Eli’s birthday yesterday, luckily the weather cooperated for most of the day so family and friends could join us in our garden. We made pizza (one of Eli’s faves), and all had way too much sugar 🥴 Now we need to figure out where this lucky little boy is going to store all his new toys! 😅 (the cake was entirely smushed into his face after this photo!)

This is the reality of running a business from home and juggling childcare. It's not pristine surfaces with artfully displayed trinkets, it's trying to do as much as you possibly can in the time you have. It's prioritising getting money-making work done over tidying the room. It's deciding whether you should have a shower, eat an unhealthy snack or answer 10 emails (unhealthy snack IN the shower? That could work!). It's putting the baby down to sleep at 7.30pm then grabbing your laptop to get a good couple of hours work done before bed.

Don't get me wrong, I'm eternally grateful that I have work coming in & a healthy baby. But, Fuck Me, it's hard. I drop so many balls at the moment it's unreal. So there's your slice of reality for the week, and hopefully a little antidote to the shiny work-life-balance posts you often see on here!

🎉 Eli turns ONE this weekend, how has that happened?! I feel like this crazy, unsettled year has absolutely flown by. I've found my thoughts recently have been occupied by everything's that happened since he was born. Thinking back to the last days of pregnancy, and the first few weeks of his life, it seems simultaneously like it was yesterday and also ages ago. It hasn't been an easy year to say the least, and looking back I think one of the easiest aspects was becoming a mother and looking after a newborn (though ofc, that had its challenges!).

I'll probably write more about everything after his birthday, but for now I'm going to keep wrapping all his presents and making sugary treats ready for his colourful socially distanced party on Sunday!

I’m the kind of person who makes practice cakes now 😂 We’re calling this a Father’s Day cake but it’s mainly a test of the one I’m doing for Eli’s birthday in a couple of weeks, deffo needs more frosting 😜 (Recipe is @milkbarstore’s Birthday Cake)

The second of my new patches, I love the simplicity of this one! Also a little nod to our personal home styling at the moment: littered with feet destroying toys 🥴 I held this up against one of my (many) black & white striped tops, and it was the perfect addition! 😍 Thanks so much for all your orders of these new ones so far! ❤️
