Screaming Fool's!

Jo Chalkley sent me an email talking about what she's doing at Factory this April Fools' Day!! Or, Screaming Fool's if you happen to live in Scream Street.

To start, she put some sticky tape under the computer mouse of one of her co-workers. Screaming Fool's! Then, at lunch, she and the Scream Street crew had a mini egg hunt where they have to find little coloured eggs with numbers on them and the winner gets a huge chocolate egg! Back when she was attending school, Jo stuck the chairs and tables together with elastic bands and pranked her friends by letting them think their tables and chairs were stuck together like glue! I never knew I'd learn so much about early life from an animator before. I think, next Monday, I'll inform about that Dork Diaries bedroom makeover thing.

My Picnic

"We had our picnic, and that was very much Biscuits' idea of fun."

-Tim, 'Buried Alive'

Express Yourself - 1.4.21

I suffered anxiety, but in the car I learned some deep breathing exercises before we had our picnic.

The New Baby

Here's something I forgot to put on my blog yesterday because I was too tired from working on 'The Skunk In The Postbox' and 'I.B.F.Fs: Big Brother Luke' - a bedtime story for all of you, starring Little Critter, named 'The New Baby'. Perfect for loving big brothers who can do all the work for your baby when you argue over whose turn it is to feed or change or anything else!

Caprese Sandwich

As I'm going on a picnic at Migdale today, I thought I'd share with you this recipe for this delicious Caprese Sandwich one to sink your teeth into with white cheese (Mozzarella), lettuce and tomatoes! You can take this with you on your own picnic if you like.
