A birthday

I was cleaning up the pantry and came across this little packet of seeds that had dropped down behind a basket and never thought of again.

 I love daisies and am stopped dead in my tracks when I see one.

We celebrated a special birthday this week at our favorite little pub. My daughter, Jess turned 30. "Yikes", says momma who feels very old right now.

My Banana Cake with Vanilla icing and fresh strawberries on the side. It got 2 thumbs up.







 Marriage plans are in the air. So, we'll be gaining a son. And we couldn't be happier. :-)

Looks like I'm heading to Newfoundland soon.

Audrey is coming along with her healing. We have a ways to go but she is such a good little patient. She is in lock-down during the day and then she'll be out of the spare room all evening and in our bedroom at night.. I've given her lots of cardboard boxes to play in and she is customizing their look as I type this. 

Drop over to http://consciouscat.net/ to see her wonderful article on 'What to look for in a cat-sitter'.

hugs,Deb

  4. Daisies were one of my daughter Kelly's favorites--she had me "hot glue" silk ones around her mortar board when she graduated from college! The cake looks absolutely delicious...must keep in mind the next time I have aged bananas. Happy Birthday to your beautiful daughter, Jess and I'm glad Audrey is on the mend. XOXO
