I hope that you had a lovely weekend.Thought I would post a few photos, taken over the weekend
With having a three day weekend, Queens Birthday weekend I had a wonderful break.
We were invited around to friends for a long leisurely lunch and this was the beautiful table we sat around, with lots of candles and iceberg roses in little vases.
It was such a nice way to spend a wet and miserable day, with a big fire going and having delicious food and enjoying the friendship.
Our friends house is all white, bright and fresh and I am sorry the photos did not come out well as they were taken on my iphone.
A meal cooked by someone else, always seems to be so much nicer and such a treat.Sonia cooked a wonderful hearty meal and we had a lot of laughs around the table.
This is the view from the dinning room and as you can see the weather outside, was not good, and it was great to be indoors.
Now we are back home again and it was my DH's birthday on the 6th of June. Happy Birthday dear!So we celebrated with a little drink and I cooked roast beef and yorkshire puddings and for dessert I made his favourite dessert cream caramel. This was delicious and they were all wishing there was another helping.
Sares birthday is coming soon and she is throwing an Online Costume Party.She would like you all to join in the celebrations and come along and have fun.

Will be fun seeing all the glamorous party frocks and may see you there.
Hope you all have a fabulous week.
Hugs
Carolyn
