Halloween Baking Ideas

Now it's October I feel like I can start looking as everything to do with Halloween - pumpkins, fancy dress and spooky films! To me it also means it's getting closer to my favourite time, Christmas but I can't let myself start shopping for that until November. Pinterest is fab for looking at anything to make or bake and I've found quite a few different baking ideas for Halloween so I thought I'd share these with you, they're all linked below too.

Ghost Meringues - These look so good and they're probably quite easy to make, you could even put these on top of cupcakes.

Halloween Cookies -I love baking cookies but I don't think my icing skills are quite this good yet.

Spider web chocolate cupcakes - These are my favourite that I've found so far as they look easy to make, plus they're chocolate.

Spider cupcakes - These cupcakes would be good for a party or for someone who you know doesn't like spiders *cackles*.

Graveyard Mousse - This is such a good idea, I've not seen anything like this design before and it looks like chocolate heaven.

Hope you all liked this post, if I give the spider web cupcakes below I'll be sure to write a post about them. You can see more from my Pinterest page here.

Back to blogging

'Abigail's World' has been lacking blog posts for six months now and it's time to get back to it. I started a new job over six months ago and juggling this along with driving lessons and a blog was just too much (I like to sleep in sometimes too). But now I'm settled into my job, I've passed my driving test *yay* and got myself a car which saves some time too so I feel like it's time to give the blog another go.

Getting back into blogging I think I want my blog to include less beauty and makeup but more photography, days out and food with the same hauls and wishlists included. I also might start to include some craft/diy pieces such as candles which I have been making for a couple of years.

So this was just a little post to say that I'm still here and will be back again shortly. I also hope that you're all as excited as I am that it's now autumn.

2017 Wishlist

Hello 2017!

After the longest blogging break I've ever had (it wasn't even intentional - honestly) I'm back. The New Year always makes me feel fresh and like it's time to get organised so hopefully I can work that with Abigail's World too. Towards the end of 2016 I got busy, moved from one job to another with no routine in place so my blog got pushed to the back of my to-do list. So now that I've got some time off before starting a whole new job (and career) I thought I'd spend some time writing for my blog. It's been so long that even Blogger has changed! So what better way to start off 2017 on my blog than with a wishlist of a few things that I'd like to treat myself to by the end of the year.

Marc Jacobs Daisy - I've always been a fan of Marc Jacobs perfumes and after trying a few in Boots the other day I think this one became my favourite.

Urban Decay Naked Palettes - Possibly the most talked about eye shadow palettes in the blogging world and I'm still yet to own one, I think my favourite is probably Naked 2 but having the whole collection would be amazing.

Canon EOS 700D DSLR Camera - If you follow me over on Instagram then you'll probably know that I'm getting quite into my photography, especially wildlife photography. But there's only so much you can do before you have to purchase a dslr, I've read up on a few different brands and cameras lately and this one seems to be quite good for the lower budget but I'm still not 100% sure which one I'd go for.

JML Simply Straight Heated Brush - I'm not sure if it's just me or if everyone seems to have released one of these brushes at the same time. At first I never really believed the ads that these were as good as they made out but after seeing some reviews lately they seem pretty good and I would imagine possibly better for your hair too.

What's on your 2017 wishlist?

A week in Scotland

If you read my last post you'll know I recently went on a little family holiday to Scotland for the week. These kind of posts have been popular before so I thought I'd share just some of the many photos I took on holiday, I just can't put my camera down! We stayed in the south of Scotland and visited some nice little places such as a castle which the interior reminded me of one of my fave shows, Downton Abbey. We also managed to spot a hare and other bits of wildlife and lots of bright and beautiful flowers!

I hope you enjoyed this post and the photographs. Let me know in the comments or on Twitter if you've been anywhere nice lately!
