TWO CAKE MAKES

This post is a little late. Please forgive me. But I had to show you because I was so pleased
with my first ever made Christmas cake! I forgot all about this post untill I looked back.

Today in Cornwall we had sun!     !Makes me feel so happy.
And then I found a water leak in my ensuite. Knew I was feeling happy too soon.

If you can not bear to read the word Christmas. Just think of my cake as fruit cake with fancy icing..


I love Christmas cake.

But I normally buy a small one. But this year I made my own.
and here it is all finished.

I always meet up with a girlfriend to exchange pressies and have Christmas cake
and a Bailey's or two.

This year my hubby was home and my girlfriend came round with her mother and daughter
so we all had a pleasent afternoon togeather. And the cake was fab. Never buying
one again.



My daughter also asked me to make a chocolate covered marble cake for her
Birthday.

Here it is.






Really enjoyed making them both and having a piece of cake everyday.


The result of all this cake now is I need to do more walking to get slim for the summer.

So I can enjoy lots of cream teas like you do in Cornwall.

WHITE STUFF THREADY TEA PARTY TAVISTOCK


Today  I went to White Stuff Thready tea party in Tavistock.
Archie and Blossom dressed up. Archie wore his bow tie and Blossom wore her
bow and pearls. oH and I wore my new coat! Ha! HA! (Was too hot sun came out0.




There were lots of beautiful decorated patches.




And a lovely tea was laid on.  I had a blue button  cup cake. I think Archie and Blossom
liked the look of the cakes.

























Can you see my patch top right.























And the result today was I came 2nd! Never mind. I had a really nice afternoon.
As you can see lots and lots of patches. I am glad I was not a judge. Such a lot of
interesting ideas.

But as I came 2nd I received beautiful flowers in a White Stuff bag.So unexpected.


 
 












So many flowers I had to put them in two vases.
















Thank you White Stuff for a really lovely afternoon and the flowers......
