And what a gorgeous collection it was! Lisa busied herself all day Friday baking and icing Amanda's birthday cakes (yes, plural) for her party yesterday. Beautiful cupcakes with swirly pink, blue and lemon frosting, topped with little fancy sugar dusted '30' cookies on sticks. AND a heavenly chocolate mud cake with malteser mousse filling, choc ganache icing and topped with more mousse blobs and whole maltesers........YUMMMMM, a real chocoholics chocolate fix.
We had lunch at the local pub in Meringandan with about 35 friends and relatives (some travelled from Brisbane, that was special). Lunch was great and then we headed back to our place for the afternoon. I wish we'd taken more photos but we were too busy eating and drinking!
The weather was perfect and our birthday girl had a ball. But, it's late again and now I need sleep.........no stitching tonight, my pillow beckons.
WOW!! Those cakes look like something from a very upmarket catalogue... Did I mention I have a birthday tomorrow?? (Oh that's right - I had it a while ago....)Sounds like you had the best time.. Tee Hee...Happy Birthday to Amanda - my NY's Eve drinking buddy!! I LOVE to be one of the girls...LOL!!!!!
