Today is my 42nd birthday. The sun shone all day and it couldn’t have been more perfect.
My children were up early and I was so touched by the thought they had put into cards and gifts. They had ordered a replacement for a much loved mug that had got broken. It is discontinued so my daughter managed to source one elsewhere and I am thrilled.
And how well my friends and family know me!
Though I must be getting old when not one, but two of my friends bought slippers.
They’re both super cosy and I love them.
I have a new dress too. The sort that can be worn with or without tights (I have sheer ones on) and with flats or heels. I love the vibrant floral pattern.
And I’m so pleased with how well this scarf from my boutique matches.
I did a bit of work and ran a few errands this morning and then went to my gorgeous friend Sally’s for tea and a cake baked by my equally gorgeous friend Annemarie. It had home-made orange curd in and was absolutely divine.
The children and I went for pizza this evening. We always enjoy it there and eating out as a threesome is a rare and actually, quite precious occurrence.
