In the spirit of this week's food-related posts, here is a rather fishy incident from Scallywags and the Troublesome Treasure. Not a great start to Mischief McScruff's schooling. I wonder if anyone else has a school disaster story to share? I had 13 years of embarrassing disasters! And they all seem to find their way into my stories. 🤪 . . #scallywagsbooks #seafoodstew

So...the reveal of our kitchen adventures. In the spirit of Scallywags and the Candy Catastrophe, and one of our own Scallywags turning 7 this week, the kids wanted to make Rocky Road Cupcakes. 🎂 And in case you were wondering, there is no 'cake' part (as shown in photos 2-4). Just crazy, dense rocky road and they LOVED it. #specialoccasion . . . #rockyroad #scallywagsbooks #kidlit

We had our own cake disaster today. Tip: choose your cake topper carefully. Ballerina hands in the second image were NOT meant to go up in flames alongside the candles. . . . #turning7 #cakedisaster #scallywagsbooks

I have a really cool story to share with you. It's totally true and yet most people don't believe me when I share it with them. Why? Well, it's the kind of story you read about in an adventure book, and not something that happens to a seven-year-old boy and his family. Check it out in my 'Secret Places' blog this week at the Reading Adventure Club hosted by the State Library of Queensland. You can also see an interactive challenge for this week too.

My daughters have been inspired by the crazy sweets the characters invent in Scallywags and the Candy Catastrophe. We haven't been making Volcanic Candy, but we have been making a fair mess in the kitchen. I'll share more soon ... . . #scallywagsbooks #makingcandy
