Today was Ted's birthday and he turned 23 which is exactly half my age! Since big brother Red is away working and little sis, Miss M is in Italy, hubby and I decided to keep it simple and took him out to afternoon tea at the Mt Cootha Lookout.
Ted had Pear and Rhubard crumble with cream and Hubby and I had Citrus cheesecake and Carrot cake which we shared (we always do that!)
Great coffee, yum cakes, company of those I love and of course....that view
It might have been his birthday but this is the message I found on my facebook page this morning: "Thank you for 23 years of love and guidance. As much your day as mine. Love you mum ♥" I had a huge lump in my throat when I read that. So sweet and thoughtful.
I also spent a little time today sorting out more of my fabrics. If you read my blog on Tuesday, you would have seen the beginning of this project and then I spent the whole of Wednesday continuing to iron and fold fabric. Today, I started to sort the fabrics into some sort of order. I got one shelf completed
Might have it finished sometime next week.
That is such a nice post Cath, how lovely to get a comment like that from your son. And your material is looking fab!
ReplyDeleteAwww, what a sweet son! Happy Birthday to him and a wish for many more. Your fabric is looking just wonderful and those cakes, oh those cakes...yummy!
ReplyDeleteThat is just sooo special. What a wonderful son you have there! Love the photos of the delicious goodies and the view from our gorgeous Mt Cootha.
