Bunty Bunny’s Blog, Everything new is an Adventure

I have been making something for Halloween. Mommy told me all about it and about carving pumpkins, I thought it would be nice to make one, but they are very big so mommy said I should try with something smaller. I looked in the fruit bowl and find a little orange. First I got a sharp knife and very carefully cut the top off; I had to be careful because I didn’t want to cut my paws. Then I used a spoon to scoop out the orange inside, mommy ate that. That was fun but the juice shot everywhere and made a bit of a mess, I had orange paws! Then I very carefully cut out the shapes, triangles for the eyes and nose and a zigzag for the mouth. Then I popped the top back on. It isn’t big enough to put a candle in, but mommy says next year if I want I can make a big one, do you like it?

 

 

 

Happy Halloween everyone

It was big brothers birthday yesterday. I thought it would be nice to make him a cake, I have watched mommy do it loads of times and it didn’t look hard. I put the sugar and butter in a bowl and mixed it up; it took ever such a long time. I had to hold the spoon with both paws and as I tried to mix, the bowl kept going round and round too. Then it was time to put the eggs in! First I dropped the egg in and had to get it out and it was all sticky, then when I cracked it I dropped little bits of shell in, they are very hard to get out! And then when I put the flour in and mixed it, all the flour puffed out all over the table. There was cake mix everywhere but I did have enough to put in a case to cook.

While it was cooking I looked in the cooking box for candles but we didn’t have any, you can’t have a cake without candles! I thought I was going to cry, I wanted my cake to be really special, but then in another cupboard I found some chocolate and some little sliver balls that you can eat, I had an idea. I melted the chocolate and poured it on top of the cake, and the chocolate got all over my paws, I did get in a messy mess, but it was very nice to lick off. The little sliver balls were very naughty! First they wouldn’t stay where I put them and they kept rolling around the table and off the plate onto the floor, then they rolled round and round when I tried to pick them up, huff! I was getting very annoyed with them. Mommy always says if some things not going right leave it and come back later, so I did. I put a happy face on the cake and waited for big brother to come home. It took him a very long time to come home, well it felt like it. I think he liked it

Today I have made pancakes, it was ease and fun. This is what I used

4oz/112g Plain Flour
2 Eggs
7fl oz/210 ml Milk
oil

I mixed the flour, eggs and milk together and left it to stand for 1 hour. 1 hour is a very long time to wait when you are excited. Then mommy heated a little oil in my pan and I poured the batter, (that’s what all the stuff mixed up is called), in and fried it. Mommy showed me how to toss the pancake in the air and catch it in the pan, she made it look so easy. My first pancake ended up on the floor, which made us all laugh but I got it right the second time.

Mommy said different people like different fillings on their pancakes, she likes berries and ice-cream, big brother likes lemon and sugar and daddy likes anything he can eat hee hee. Some people like honey or jam. I had lemon and sugar on mine like big brother

What do you like on your pancakes?

One of my first adventures was to a place called Cannock Chase where I saw some sculptures. I wanted to have a go at making one but didn’t know what to make. Then I had an idea, I know a thing called Valentines Day is today and it has something to do with hearts, so I made a heart.

I drew the heart shape on the card; it’s very hard to draw that shape. Then I had to cut it out which was very hard too. I have hurt my paws! Tinkerbelle wasn’t around to help, so I had to do it all by myself. I then found a red ribbon in mommy’s bits and bobs box. I like the bits and bobs box it is full of shiny beads and coloured ribbons. I tried to tie the ribbon around the heart, but I am not very good at tying things. So I used some sticky tape, and I got in a mess with that. First I couldn’t find the end, then when I did and pulled some off it got stuck to my paws, then it got stuck to the wrong piece of the card and I had to pull it all off and start again. But I did it in the end.

Making a sculpture is hard work.

I was talking to big brother about my blog page, I have lots of photos I want to share, but the page looks all messy if I put too many on, so big brother asked why I didn’t set up a ‘FlickR account.’ Yes that’s a good idea I said, what is a FlickR account? Big brother explained it was a place I could join and I would have my own page there too. I could put on my photos and then decide who I wanted to look at them. What a lovely idea.

So big brother set up the account for me and showed me how to put on my photos, now I can share. You can find them on the right had side under My Photos, if you click on them they get bigger or you can watch a ‘slide show’ I like looking at them on ‘slide show’ the best. Don’t worry they don’t slide off the page. Mommy thought it was very funny when I was holding the computer really tight and I told her I didn’t want my photos sliding off the page when I was looking at them on slide show.

hello

I think that children must be very clever. I tried to build a den, and it was hard work. First of all I collected up some sticks that the wind had blown off the trees, I put them all in a pile and tried to drag them to where I wanted them but I kept dropping them and they kept getting caught on other things, and tripping me up! So I put them all down and dragged them two at a time until they were all in the right place.

Then I tried to stand them up and they kept falling over, so I tried to lean them on a wall, but when I climbed in they fell down again! Tinkerbelle found all this very funny and after she had stopped laughing, she asked me what I was doing. I told her that I had seen children building a den and that I wanted one.

So she told me how to do it, first of all I had to take the biggest stick and shove it hard into the ground, then lean all the other sticks around the outside starting with the longest ones first and then put the little ones around the outside.

Tinkerbelle said she thought it might be a nice idea to put a carpet of leaves on the floor so that I didn’t get to cold or too wet while I was playing. So we went in search of something nice and dry and found some conifer leaves that had been cut off the trees last year. Tinkerbelle told me that conifers are called evergreens and never ever lose their green leaves so my carpet will stay nice for a long time. (Tinkerbelle is so clever).
