After Wales won the Rugby Six Nations 2012 cup on Saturday, I thought this post would be completely relevant as somebody else may want to celebrate Wales' win with a bit of baking!

My boyfriend recently got into the Under 18's Welsh Squad, which I was ever so proud of! Yet being called a 'WAG' by family and friends is slightly off putting to say the least, however the mulberry bag I've had my eyes on for months, now looks slightly promising.

So being the good girlfriend I am, I wanted to find something special to congratulate him with.  I looked everywhere. I couldn't find a thing!! There were welsh flags, and welsh mugs... But tbh, I think we all know that would have been a tad naff! So I decided to test my baking skills, and bake him some cakes.

So here's my beautiful red and green cupcakes!!

I knew I had to at least make the cupcakes the main colours of Wales, which are red and green. I did this by adding some green and red food colouring to the icing. After that I decorated them!! To create the design on top, I used icing pens, which I purchased from my local supermarket. These made things soo much easier. Although, you have to have a steady hand and patience to create the design you would like.

So he came into the kitchen, and seen these little beauties. He didn't know what to say. He looked soo surprised and happy, Just like when I found out about his amazing achievement. So congratulations Eth, and congratulations to the Welsh squad, who played great on Saturday!


What do you think of the cakes? Were you proud of Wales with their win?

Hello, Bonjour, Hola, Ciao!

Welcome to MaryJanett's.

My name is Lauren and I am from Wales. I have a wonderful, supportive and caring family and also to mention a gorgeous boyfriend who thinks the world of me. Seriously. He's so sweet. I'm currently studying English, Drama and Business at my local sixth form and I am also applying for university to study Journalism. So that's where the idea to start my own blog basically came from.

I wanted to create MaryJanett's so I could get my opinions across and to practice my journalism skills and techniques. I don't want to say exactly what I'll be posting on this blog, mainly because I might not get round to it or decide to venture down another road. So I've came up with a few ideas to what I could post on here weekly.

As most of the blog's I follow, Makeup and clothing are going to be a must. I will be letting you know about any purchases that I've made, what I think of these purchases, where you can get them, what price and so on.

I would also like to post regularly about what I'm up to, whether it's where I've been for a nice meal, what I went to see in the cinema last week or any opinions I have that I feel I need to share with you.

Just like I'll be posting about my opinions every week, I would obviously love to hear back from you with any feedback. So please feel free to leave a comment below any post, anything negative, I can obviously try and learn from this and adjust.

Thank you very much for reading. I hope to hear from you soon.

Enjoy the blog.

MJ
