Back to normal ...

Hello everyone ... This is just a quick post ... I wanted to thank you for your sweet comments and best wishes for my Wedding Anniversary yesterday ... I had a busy day and a friend came to visit bringing me a beautiful cake stand from Laura Ashley ... for my new kitchen ... isn't it lovely?



Goes so well with my book don't you think?


I haven't made any of these yet ... 'cos I know I will have to eat them ... but don't they look good!
My Husband and I went out for a lovely dinner last night to a little restaurant we like and I wore my gift from him ...


A pretty silver and pearl necklace and bracelet set ... which is very me ...


.. and see the paper tissue rose? ... this was one of two that the waiter at the restaurant made for me and one was wrapped around the wine bottle ... they are a little crushed and hard to photograph ... but I was so thrilled with them ... don't we all love handmade flowers?
Now having taken down my Christmas tree and decorations ... I NEED to do some grocery shopping ...
truly the fridge is empty!! maybe grab sometime for crafting later ...

Till soon keep safe ...

The cakestand and your jewelry....they are stunning. I am a 'pearl" girl. They survive every trend and I love the classic beauty of them. And the cakestand? What a lovely gift; just looking at it is already fun isn't it? And the flowers you got from the waiter; that's what I call hospitality! And having a heart for your customers...

Enjoy them!

I'm off; cleaning the bathroom :)

What a pretty cake stand...sure to make the prettiest cake and cupcakes even prettier on display.
Your gift from your hubby is stunning Ros. Love the colors and multiple strands. I bet it looks so pretty on too. I want to see some photos of your new kitchen. Did you show any already and I missed it?
