Oh poop!

I broke my promise and can't believe a whole year has passed since I last posted!
All of a sudden Autumn 2011 is upon us and I'm gazing out of my window and admiring the perfect Autumn day outside. Where, oh where, has the time gone? Again!

Things have been great in The Fat Fairy kitchen and as you can imagine, lots of baking has gone on over the last 12 months, so no complaints.

I'm still on the lookout for a bigger space for the business but so far, perfection has eluded me and nothing less than perfection will suffice as once I'm in, I don't plan on moving for a loooooooong time.

But, I remain unstintingly optimistic that the perfect place is out there if I just keep my eyes open : )

I spent yesterday at a fantastic networking evening at the quite gorgeous Charing Cross Hotel in London hosted by Huntress recruitment and handed out business cards left, right and centre and talked until I was hoarse. I met some amazing ladies and won a fabulous raffle prize too (a consultation with the amazing Sarupa Shah (http://www.sarupashah.com) and can't wait to see how she can help transform my life/business for the better : )
I think it'll be an interesting journey and I'll keep you updated with progress reports.

With my favourite part of the year approaching, I'm filled with millions of ideas for delicious Christmas goodies for friends, family and my wonderful customers and I'll post some of those a little closer to the festivities as I think October is still too early to start getting ready for Christmas (despite the fact that the supermarkets are already stocking their shelves with Christmas produce. What is that about?! We haven't even had Halloween yet!).

Below, you'll find a few of the fab cupcakes I've had the opportunity to create this year.

Enjoy xxx
