The Big 0-3
May 29, 2013 by 1 Comment
Yes, our Chester (pup) is 3 years old! Can't quite believe he has been a part of our lives for so long, but on the other hand we couldn't imagine not having him around! He had a lovely birthday filled with all his favourite things - doggy cake (made by Holly's Little Bakery!), treats, cuddles, new toys, walks, swimming, and even doggy beer! Here he is getting stuck into his cake while Holly waits for her turn: Mmmmm think he enjoyed it! It is a special doggy cake recipe that I make … [Read more...]
New Look!
May 9, 2013 by 4 Comments
Well - what do you all think of my blog's new look? I had been neglecting my blog for a long time, basically because I thought it looked so rubbish there was no point posting anything on it - and there is no way I have the technical know-how to design a fab looking theme. Sooo - I discovered Patricia from Fancy Girls Designs and fell in love with her work. Her style is pretty, girlie and quite simple - just like mine! Patricia designed this fab new theme for me and I love it! Thank you so … [Read more...]
Snow Pups

Happy New Year! I'm still allowed to say that as it's my first post of 2013! Well, we had our first proper snow fall yesterday - it was so pretty. I love the first day that the snow lies, it's all so crunchy & fluffy - not so nice when it turns slushy & grey! The pups had an absolute ball! It was Holly's first "proper" snow as it didn't snow much last year for her, but Chester was an old pro at it all. Pretty Holly Happy Chester Snow Pups! Crazy Holly! … [Read more...]
2012 Round Up
December 31, 2012 by 2 Comments
Well - 2012 was a bit of a mixed year for me. Here are some highlights (or lowlights) - not in any particular order, just what comes to mind. I headed off for some winter sun in Lanzarote with my mum. I turned 30! Gary & I went on a lovely walking weekend in the Lake District with the pups and got amazing weather. I set up my own bakery business - Holly's Little Bakery. I reached the finals of the Marie Claire Inspire & Mentor programme and got to travel to London to meet … [Read more...]
Holly’s 2nd Birthday!
December 4, 2012 by 4 Comments
My little Holly Pops turned 2 yesterday on 1st December! Time has flown by since we got her & I am pleased to say that she is as cheeky and lovable as ever! :) I don't think that dogs should miss out on birthday cakes so I rustled up one of my specialty peanut butter and carrot dog cakes for her! I think it's safe to say both her & big brother Chester enjoyed it! :) She decided that she wanted to go to the beach for her birthday treat (!) so we headed to New Brighton … [Read more...]
Anglesey Trip 2012
October 3, 2012 by 7 Comments
We headed to Anglesey in September for our yearly trip. Gary always likes to go fishing for the day, and the pups & I enjoy some big walks. Chester & Holly were excited to see the sea after the long car journey! We enjoyed walking along some beaches while Gary fished (can you see him at the edge of the cliff in the 2nd photo?!) The sunset was pretty nice as well! We headed home late at night with some dead fish in the car for the cats' & dogs' … [Read more...]

Pupcakes for Chester’s Birthday!
May 21, 2012 by 5 Comments
Chester, our Springer Spaniel doggy was 2 years old last week! I keep calling him "pup" but I guess he's not a pup anymore! After the success of his doggy birthday cake last year (see HERE) - which I entered in English Mum's BakeOff (HOW did I not win?! ;) ), I decided to make some pupcakes (aka doggy cupcakes) for him this year. I kind of made up the recipe but based it on the dog cake recipe - using ingredients that are healthy for dogs to eat. No point in giving him cream cheese … [Read more...]
