Keira will turn five over the weekend, and to celebrate we're having a family dinner at the Indian Cafe to eat dahl, her 'favouritest' meal. But then on Sunday she'll have a small tea-party in the park with some of her friends from kindergarten. Today I prepared a few things for this: the all-important bunting (i made the flags petal-shaped and cut them from vintage cotton sheets.) And the teapot and cup cards were painted by me for the invitations.
Another thing is, I discovered an amazing new recipe for making chocolate chip cookies. I first saw it featured here (at 'inside a black apple') then later, here (at 'smitten kitchen.') The recipe is this one. I promise, you won't be disappointed, unless of course you do something like absent-mindedly switch the sugar for salt. I've done that before, and it wasn't good.
Also, my blog now has its own facebook page! Pretty modern, don't you think? You can 'become a fan' here, if you like. Have a great weekend, friends.
