Starting Early
So I know we just had Christmas but I like to start thinking about each Holiday super early- I LOVE this time of year as there is always so much going on and so much to look forward to. I know a lot of people dismiss Valentines day as a commercialized Hallmark style holiday but I love it : ) We have never done the gifts/ going out for dinner etc thing in this house it is more about time and appreciation for us than presents.
For me and us as a family it has always been a holidays to celebrate and express our love for those closest to us. For us thats means crafts, cards and baking to show those special people how much we care. So in me research here are a few of the baking ideas I have found-
I hope these photos give you a few ideas of your own of things you can bake with your kids this holiday : )

Hi Jade, I would love some ideas for an Australia day party. My husband wants to have a party for about 20 friends. Any good ideas? Thanks oops also I am planning to take my kids 11 &14 to the beach for a day. Any helpful hints or tips to make this an enjoyable outing?
Thanks so much. I absolutely love your blog.

As for australia day, I've seen lamingtons made into either flags or the shape of Australia. Mini yellow and green pavlovals topped with cream and blueberries in the shape of the southerncross.
I'm sure there is heaps more, would love to see what you find.
