LIFE IS SWEET!!!
Monday 26th October 2009
Are you doing something ultra-cool this half-term? Or are you just a teensy bit… well, bored? Chase away the blues and make sure life really is sweet… by baking some cupcakes or cookies, doing something fun with a friend or curling up with your fave CC book!
Whatever you do to brighten up the holidays, share it – so other CC readers out there can get inspired to try something cool, too! Just post your tips for a boredom-free half-term through the comments link below.
Here in Scotland, half-term is over (boo!!!) but my family and I had a fab time – we went to London and… wait for it… saw the Queen! (Yes, the REAL Queen! Really!) She was at a fab play, War Horse, based on the book by Michael Morpurgo… and she caused quite a stir! The play was so brilliant it got a standing ovation, too, and there wasn’t a dry eye in the house… aw. We also shopped till we dropped in Camden, Covent Garden and the Kings Road, did lots of touristy stuff and even got to go behind the scenes at the Museum of London… spooky stuff!
So what did you do… or what are you planning? Let me know! And if you DO make some sweet treats, send me a pic… I’ll post the best ones and send a little prize to those that really catch my eye!
Remember… life is sweet!

Hey Cathy Cassidy! I live in Australia and in Australia, the holidays have just ended :o( But just cause the holidays are over doesn’t mean I can’t have fun! It’s Halloween today and Mum and Dad have been buying us some yummy treats – and we even got McDonalds for dinner tonight! I’m also reading your latest book, GingerSnaps, and I’m really enjoying it – it’s such an amazing book with a great plot – just like all your books! Love, your number one fan – Rachel xoxoxoxo

It was my birthday in the holidays and i went to an outdoor center and did an army like assualt course with all my bezzies! It was great! We had some great homemade choccy cake (made by me and my lil cuzin) It was fab!
Ooooh, I baked cupcakes and my family and I went to Fiji, even though it’s not fall breal in Australia 🙂
Well this holidays I have been drawing and painting a lot. I got my mum to buy a canvas and some paint and paintbrushes and I have drawn and are now painting my mural! I have divided it into 8 parts with Cathy`s name in the middle, and in the 8 boxes are my 8 fave books! I have included Driftwood, Lucky Star, Sundae Girl, Dizzy, Angel Cake, Scarlett, GingerSnaps and Indigo Blue! I will send you are pic Cathy when it is finished! Also you could write a story or book. Random ideas will offen just pop in to your head and you can expand them and maybe turn it into a story or book. It helps express your feelings and it is a good thing to do if you have some free time.
Katherine, that sounds awesome… I can’t wait to see the pic! Stacey, FIJI… wow!!!! Good luck with the exams, Ashley. Great to hear from you all… and good luck if you are starting back at school today!
