Flowers for our two year anniversary. Beautiful.
The first gift for the rapidly approaching new arrival. Knitted by my mum. Teeny! They just need some buttons. We don't actually have anything practical yet - I think I need to make a list and starting believing it's a reality!
The sun is here! May had a lovely time in the garden the other day. As you can see I'm still playing with my Hipstamatic app.
We celebrated our second wedding anniversary. I can't believe it's two years already. Crazy. We had a lovely dinner at The French House in Soho, selected because we met there for a drink on our first date. We are about to tuck into steak with bernaise sauce. I really need to get our wedding pictures organised. I still haven't had prints made of any of them. Very slack.
I made a cake for a friend's birthday. I deliberated about what flavour to do and settled on a rosewater and pistachio recipe I cut out of a magazine a while ago. Unfortunately I forgot to make a note of where I got it from but I think it may be a Nigel Slater recipe. It was lovely and moist and not too sweet. Looked pretty too.
And finally a picture of some fabric for my next quilting project. I need to collect a few more but I'm pleased with the start. My plan is to do a more traditional square patch quilt on one side and then a free form abstract design on the reverse. I particularly like the second one down on the right. It's from the V&A shop. They don't have a huge selection but I really liked this design and the quality of the cotton is lovely. The others were all ordered from Cotton Patch or ebay.
