I have made a sight of my NERF gun. I made it by stretching a spring over a piece of broken piece of plastic from my box of broken and dismantled things.

Bilaal tried riding in the back of my bike.

My onesie had a hole in it but I fixed it with duck tape. The colour is actually navy blue but the camera won't take a photo properly.

We be bought something off the internet and I disposed of the packaging.

I have made some banana icecream without cream. I put a 3/4 cup yogurt. 1/3 cup caster sugar and 3/4 cup of banana. Blended it and icecream-machined it and I think that the results is rather good.

I made some pear leather. I made it by cooking four pears in a pan with half a cup of water for ten to fifteen minutes. I drained off the excess water and put the mushy pears in to a liquidiser. I then put the pear purée on a large Swiss roll tin lined with grease proof paper and dryed it in the oven on fifty degrees for ten hours. When they were done they looked good and could even be sold as fruit winders!

At ch280 suggestion I have made some mango leather with the last mango that got all squashed up. I used the cake mixer to blend the mango semi-finely and put the mixture in the oven on grease proof paper at only 60 degrees. I think it turned out rather well.

We have been watching this program about making fancy mini cakes. It is called "Bake Off: Creme de la Creme. I like it because I would love to eat all of the little cakes and mini desserts but I hate it because I know I wouldn't ever be able to make anything on the show.

At this time of year my grandad starts sending us really nice Indian mangos.  

We have decided to make some homemade mango icecream. It was really easy only we added less sugar.

Here is the recipe

I have fixed the swing in the garden.

The other day we got some new wii games. We got two sim games for Bilaal and Ibraheem, but the best thing was fo me. It is alien shooter. It s the first soother that I have had on the wii and I think it is good but tricky to play

For dinner yesterday I made a homemade pizza in 15 minutes. I mixed flour and water at a ratio of 2:1 in a food processor with a drizzle of olive oil and a pinch of salt. While the dough is mixing add some more flour from the top until you think you can roll it out. Put some olive oil in a pan and out the dough that has been rolled in to a 1cm-ish circles do cook on high heat until the bottom looks done, you may need a spatula to check. Then add your sauce and toppings. I used tomato purée and my sauce and sprinkled with cheese then I added home pickled chillies, onions and sweetcorn and finally add added another sprinkling of cheese to keep it all together. Put it under a medium grill and leave it until it is done. It took me only 15 minutes to make and it tasted great. 

I have made some homemade chillie flakes out of shrivelled chillies that I ground up in the spice grinder.

I made some homemade crumpets but they didn't work very well. They didn't get the holes on top like shoo ones.

Ibraheem went for a ride around town at 7 o'clock this morning with mum while the roads were still quiet. He normally wakes up at around 5 in the morning so he had plenty of time to get ready.

The bread and soup we made were really nice.

We went in the garden and I experimented with photoshop.

We are making leek and potato soup with leeks from the garden ad homemade soda bread.

Bilaal has got a new bike. Is is bright green but Bilaal thinks it is yellow because he is colour blind. It is his first proper pedal bike. Because his previous bike didn't have stabilisers, it was a balance bike he will learn to ride it quickly.

Mum and I went to the car boot sale this morning. We didn't get much. We got a deckchair, the Lord of the Rings book and and a cup of espresso.

The kids have gone to grandmas for the weekend so we will get a bit of peace and quiet. My cousins from Coventry are down so i will probably be seeing them. We are planning to go to the car boot sale as well tomorrow.

We tried to make some homemade lemon drops but we made a mistake somewhere along the line.

I made a sword out of wood but while hitting some wood with it in midair other broke. The wood was in the air not me by the way.

I made some wooden knifes which I spray painted.

We went to the farm this morning to feed the lambs.
