Sounds delightful – can't wait to see the photos! xxx
PS I got your book for my birthday present!!! xxx Beautifully published I must say! Can't wait to try out some of the recipes and it was so cool to read through it and think at various points ' ah yes, I remember reading about that on her blog in the past…' etc! xxx
Great evening, hope I didn't get in the way too much. I do have one suggestion though – can you take fewer pictures of me in the future? I only bring the tone down.
That triple layer red, white and blue cake is awesome!
