My sister made these really cool paper decorations for my aunt’s birthday! I don’t know if you can tell but the stars are stuck on a window. I made this pear and hazelnut flourless cake (which was gluten free). I doubled the mixture because when I had tested out the recipe on work colleagues it had vanished extremely fast. The holes in the top are where the pears are. This recipe is now my favourite gluten free cake recipe, it was very tasty.
Edited to add: My sister says these are the instructions she used: Make Your Own Christmas Decorations

My sister knitted my dad some birthday sushi!!
I keep mentioning it but the Elizabeth David chocolate almond cake is THE gluten free cake, you can’t go wrong with it. I went over the top here making two tiers, really you only need one. The cream was folded with apricot compote.
My family are my inspiration when it comes to color and pattern.

Look at this amazing dust bunny leather purse that my sister’s boyfriend made her. You know, the dust bunnies from Totoro. There are dust bunnies inside too :)
