Weekend happenings...

<div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">I hope you all had a wonderful weekend. My mine was very productive which has made me feel much more relaxed about Christmas. I managed to nearly do all of our Christmas shopping that, as of last week, was barely started. And we managed to do it in lightning fast time which was even better. We had a delicious dinner (pictures shown) last night and also took Lily and Molly for a swim at Pittwater during the day which they loved. They were beside themselves with excitement! </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">And, to top things off my newest delivery of Samantha Robinson beauties will arrive today - the first lot went very quickly, i'm very excited to have more and in different colours this time round. </span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;"><br /></span></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size:small;">Have a wonderful week everyone!

More tea, baking and family!

<div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: justify;"><span class="Apple-style-span" style="font-size: small;">Seems I have tea and cakes on my mind this week. Must be because my delightful sister in law (and her wonderful husband and three gorgeous girls) are coming to visit this weekend. I have spoken about Nicole before who not only has a teacup collection of enormous proportions, she is also the queen of baking! Luckily she won't be seeing my disastrous macarons this weekend... Perhaps I need to make some fool proof cupcakes instead...
