Hello everyone.
D and I have had a busy and fun-filled first week of the school holidays.
Last weekend, we went to a local garden centre and enjoyed a lovely cream tea. Hubby and I prefer a fruit scone, and D had a plain one.
Early in the week, D and I went into Birmingham City Centre for a little retail therapy and girlie day. We both had a great time and came home with several bags of goodies. We must do this more often together.
On Wednesday, D spent some time with a friend. They went bowling, which was followed shortly afterwards by a lovely meal.
Of course, no holiday would be complete without at least one of D's amazing cakes.
This one was a Red Velvet cake made using our new kitchen mixer. D is still thrilled with the new gadget, so we will be looking forward to even more baked goodies in the future!
It is only a few more weeks until our son's wedding, and while the happy couple is making their final preparations, I have been working on another cross-stitch. Although I am taking my time with it, I plan to have it finished and framed when they return from their honeymoon.
