Tealight Mini Marshmallow Toasting

tealight marshmallow toasting

We love toasting marshmallows! On an open fire, over the gas hob and even by tealights…

There’s nothing better than being in the toasty warm inside, a good book, rain lashing at your window and hot chocolate in a mug. We love pink fluffy food so much we’ve even been to a Marshmallow Farm!

And it’s so easy to enjoy toasting mini marshmallows by tealight. Here’s how we did it…

First we gathered our hot chocolate.

Then we gathered our marshmallows on cocktail sticks, some squirty cream & sprinkles.

Then we laid the coffee table with our mallow winter warming feast.

Finally we toasted ate ate until marshmallows came from our ears.

We enjoyed doing this again on our BFG Inspired Fun Day.

💪😁 💪😁
💪 I finished the restoration works on the font 💪 I finished the restoration works on the font today 🥰
We’re not sure what it will be used for in the future but as a temporary measure I’ve used it to store some of the artificial flowers I bought for our upcoming wedding 👰‍♀️🤵‍♂️💒💐 I won’t lie, I don’t particularly like how it looks with the flowers in, maybe it will grow on me, I do however love how well the font cleaned up 🥰...that’s another job off the list ✔️💪
Ignore the mess on the wall surrounding it, this is still work in progress.

They grow so quick in the blink of an eye, Time do They grow so quick
in the blink of an eye,
Time doesn't stand still
it whizzes on by.

with each breath their changing
a new stage each day,
a new phase to go through
new games to play

One day their crawling,
then stumbling steps stood up tall,
we watch on with arms
awaiting a fall.. 

We scoop them up when they're crying,
we wipe away tears,
and we try to slow moments 
as the days turn to years.

We listen to gurgles, 
new smiles make us proud
They find a new voice
that turns from quiet to loud.

They learn independence 
their wings slowly grow
and they venture further and further
but always come home.

They explore life with wonder, 
they adventure in awe
they discover new boundaries 
and push a bit more. 

They grasp onto the world
they step out on their own,
and they look over their shoulder,
as we watch how they've grown.

And our babies grow up,
overtake us in height 
but we remember them teeny 
when we paced through the night

When we didn't quite realise 
that time flew so fast
that childhood would fleet by
leaving memories to last

and in the moments we faltered 
as toys littered the floor 
we didn't think we'd miss that
and wish to falter some more

we wish for the traumas
we wish for the noise
we wish to go back
and be surrounded by toys 

But the funny thing about children,
and the way that they grow
is how the time flies on past
and we don't even know

Until suddenly one day you'll sit,
you'll get caught unawares
and realise your babies have grown,
are no longer there... 

So take heed to the moments,
Each day that their small
and remember it fleets by
so savour it all.

💒 Somewhere to dump our coats and boots..we now 💒 Somewhere to dump our coats and boots..we now have a porch that feels a little less like a building site... not bad for a days work. 
We took the scaffolding down yesterday from ceiling works and decided this morning to endeavour to brighten it all up, it still needs painting up and waxing etc (we’re waiting for warmer weather so it’s most effective as the porch is quite open to the elements and temperature change), but for the meantime it’s nice to have a space that feels homely 🥰
We’ve replaced the ceiling (still needs a lick of paint)
Relocated the font (restoration still in progress)
Exposed the original sandstone around the doorway.
Restored the floor (just need sealing) 
Made the front door from repurposed pews.
Lowered the bell, restored it and hung it as a working doorbell. 
Sources two chair for £15 on Facebook market place.
The stained glass artwork was made collectively with the children during the first lockdown using sweet wrappers as something to hang in the churchyard in the summer. 
The artwork above the pew was donated by a former congregation member and is a painting of the church.
The red carpet doormat is from the altar area. 
Their are prayer cushions dotted about and a key cupboard (which you can’t see well in the photos) which was once a hymn book holder which was attached to the front of aisle pews. 
The pew is the oldest and most ornate pew that remained in the church. 

The porch was originally an open porch which a gate as opposed to a front door. 

If you have visited the church before or are a former member of the congregation you will notice a difference and we hope it makes you smile 🙂
