Pete's mask

I finally got around to getting it done...

making a cake

Tonight I'm having a group of friends coming over for coffee and cake for my birthday because they are not able to make it to my Noosa party.

I spent the afternoon making a red velvet cake. It looks really good, and I can't wait to taste it.

Thought I'd share a few pics and make you drool



They don't call it red velvet cake for nothing huh?? How cool does it look?


And the finished product :) It wouldn't be me if it wasn't pink and green !

I can't wait to taste it.

A lovely part of birthday week

This morning when I woke up, and walked out of our bedroom, my lovely husband had a cute surprise for me. I went to be before him last night, and while I was sleeping he had strung up dozens of streamers and bunches of balloons from the ceiling in the lounge room and dining rooms. It looks SO cool.. he is SUCH a cutie.


When I walked out ('scuse the pj's) and got my surprise!

The best shot we can get of how AWESOME it looks :)

And then my day got even better... my lovely friend Lisa took me out for morning tea. She greeted me at the door with the most gorgeous bunch of roses:

And then we went to the Angel Cafe. I had the yummiest most naughty drink. Called Sweet Heaven, it consisted of a layer of sweetened condensed milk, a long black coffee, whipped cream and chocolate sprinkles. SO YUMMY!!!!!!!!! And a white chocolate and lime baked cheesecake.

Thank you Lisa! Love you xx

It's been a really nice day.

birthday letter...

I got a birthday letter in the mail yesterday from member for parliament, Ian McFarlane. 'Twas a bit of a thrill - even though I know it's just a computer generated list of people who have birthdays in April. I still felt special :P

New necklace

A new piece of jewellery that I've just made for a friend...
