Hello! Have you missed me? The past few weeks have been crazy busy, and silly things like WORK and PARTIES have got in the way of blog updates. To make up for this inattention, I offer you a bumper package (ooh!) of all things food- and Christmas-related. Yay!
My birthday is a couple of days before Christmas. This is rubbish, for several reasons (guaranteed bad weather, having to wait all year for presents) but it does mean that the Christmas holidays are extra super-duper fun for me.
This year my mother put on a traditional birthday tea for me. Complete with egg sandwiches with the crusts cut off, cheese-and-pineapple on sticks, iced gems, party rings, and mandarin-flavoured jelly.
Oh, and champagne. I don't remember that turning up at my seventh birthday party, but who am I to quibble?
(The daffodils were sent by post from Truro by B's sister. Aren't they beautiful? So nice to have a little touch of spring in the middle of deepest darkest December.)
My sister-in-law made cupcakes for pudding, iced in blue, green, pink and purple.
They were delicious.
