Just A Little Change

You may have noticed, or maybe not since I have no idea if anyone is still following my blog, that my blog has changed a wee bit. Well, I decided that I had had enough of Madness And I and that it was time for a change. It also has to do with a big project I am working on, which I will blog about soon. 

Bye bye Madness And I, and I look forward to whatever may come with Lola And Joy.

Percy Boy


I love my little nephew. Is it normal to love your nephew (or niece) this much? Well I don't care, because mine is the cutest that ever existed. Today he is 10 months old and just getting cuter by the minute!

The other day my sister, her husband and their little boy came over for breakfast and we all had lots of fun crawling around with Percy.

Percy also likes to help his mum and grandmother in the kitchen!

Recent Baking Adventures!

I really love baking (and eating the baked products, of course) but I don't always have the time, or the patience, or the effort to bake. Recently though I've done a bit of baking! Here are some things I've made lately.

I made these raspberry and coconut tarts from Oh So Lovely Vintage. They were suuuper easy to make and no one noticed the fact that mine were a little bit browner than Erin's! Despite slightly over-baking, they were a huuuge crowd pleaser.

Last week it was my brother-in-law's birthday and he loves peanut butter goods so I made him these peanut butter chocolate chip blondies. Mine don't look quite the same, but that's because I'm dorky and like to write people's name with food. I think he liked em!

Have you baked anything yummy lately? I'd love to here about it!

PS. Sorry for the dodgy photos. I am relying on iPhone pics at the moment!

Vintage Button Swap!

I wanted to quickly pop in a share with you something I am very excited about at the moment!!

Tarryn from Butter And Buntings is hosting a vintage button swap where you send your swap partner a selection of cute vintage buttons! I think it is the cutest idea and can't wait till we get our swap partners!

There's still some time to sign up if you would like to, but not much!! You can have a little look-see here if you'd like to.

Do you love participating in swaps as much as me??

Favourite Thailand Finds

A few weeks ago I posted about my trip to Thailand and talked about the amazing time that I had there. Well now I thought I'd show you some of the amazing things I bought there. Seriously, if you didn't know it, Bangkok is one of the most amazing places to shop for clothing. This is only a very small percentage of what I bought there!!!
This gorgeous red vintage dress with the cutest collar. It has a a-line skirt when on!

Cute brown spotted dress.

Another red spotted beauty!

I love this dress. It has such a cute bright orange print and a really cute huge collar. I don't usually wear this colour or collars this big, but I love it and I have worn it many times already.

Cute brown floral vintage dress!

I love this dress! It has a really big circular skirt and I love the colours. It was designed and made by this cute Thai girl that she was selling at a market for a really good price!

Another cute brown dress with spots!

I love this bag!!!! I have a huge thing for bows and spots, and the colour is gorgeous too!

Another cute bag. In real life it's a bit more of a teal colour, not quite as blue.

Spots! Aargh!!

Cute bag with such a cute design. I loved the colour combo!

And yet another adorable bag.
I had such an awesome time shopping, and can't wait to go back!!!
