I’ve had a pretty full week getting everything ready for this year’s Mothers Day Collection, working on a couple of lovely orders we’ve had for business biscuits this week AND a new collection launch that I’ll share with you really soon.
As I’m writing this the sun is streaming in through the window and I’m hoping that the crazy weather of the last week is behind us. My husband is busy on the farm with calving about to start, so I’m really hopeful that some sunshine will arrive soon which makes his life and work a bit easier.
Plus I’ll be more inclined to go down to help out with feeding the new arrivals and catching up with what’s been going on down on the farm over the last few months – I’m a fair weather farmers wife for sure!
Our Mother’s Day Collection is launching tomorrow.
We’ve included a couple your favourite biscuit boxes from last year, but also some new sets that we love so we hope you do too!
As always, we’ll be opening for pre-orders and we’ll bake, stamp and ship biscuits to arrive a few days before Mother’s Day on the 27th March.
Biscuits of the week…
Last week, we had some great ‘You Choose’ biscuit gift orders, including a personalised gift for a Hen Party invitation to be sent to the bride to be.
Each biscuit was stamped with a special message giving the bride the details of where she needed to be and when, what she should pack and a few clues about what they would be doing! Isn’t that a great idea?
We also loved this set, a perfect example of edible inspiration – and you know how much we love orders like this!
Have a great weekend friends.
With love
Caroline

This week I’m…
Watching... ‘Kelvin's Big Farming Adventure'. I wasn't expecting to enjoy this as much as I did, but it was just lovely. So funny watching Kelvin and his wife getting to grips with life on their new farm, and seeing how much they loved swapping their city life for a new adventure in the country. Living really rurally myself and being married to a farmer, it reminded me how much I have to be grateful for, and it warmed my heart.
Reading…This beautiful article by Emma Thompson written for The Guardian about balancing between the generations of her family. Just a really tender piece of writing that although I can’t hope to ever understand, not having children myself, still somehow resonated with me. It’s beautiful.
Wearing… My wonderful virtual assistant and dear friend Marlen bought me a special sweater for Christmas from Muthahood. I’m wearing it now as I write this and it’s the softest, cosiest and prettiest item in my wardrobe at the moment. It’s 100% organic cotton, with a brushed fleece lining and I love it a lot. If you don’t know Muthahood, do check them out. Gemma created her business and The Strong Girls Club with the aim of empowering women and girls through positive, meaningful messages and it's a really lovely business to support.
