HAPPY BIRTHDAY 2016

I'm a little late in posting my Birthday Blog Post, my Birthday was Thursday 22nd September, I had a wonderful day, my very good friend made me this wonderful BIG cupcake Birthday cake which was made of Red Velvet.  Ummmmm so delicious.

The same friend made us a delicious morning tea of fresh homemade scones and a lovely lemon teacake.

We then went out to lunch and enjoyed a couple of cocktails.                                                                                     

These are some of my Birthday goodies from family and friends.

My very good friend, Vicki (yes the same one that made my Birthday cake) gave me a really lovely necklace of a "digger's hat" - she knows I love making laundry bags and quilts for the ADF, also a lovely pair of Silver sixpence earrings of my birth year.

My lovely Bloggy friend Anthea of Hisbicus Stitches and I did a Birthday swap this year, Anthea made me this gorgeous craft bag with lots of goodies to go with it. 

                                                
Here is a better look of the bag by itself..                             

Anthea also included a matching Needle Keeper and a Pin Cushion.  I have the perfect use for my new bag and extras - I am going to use it to hold my stitching when we go tripping in our caravan, now to wait for the caravan to arrive which is on order.  Anthea also gave me these lovely Kate Spain fabrics.

We went to dinner with family and friends, we went to The Rustic Olive at Redcliffe. It certainly lived up to everything I had heard out it.  Absolutely wonderful Italian food, good size portions too..
I had Scallopini, I love veal and didn't want to eat pasta that late.

Stephen and Kate had the Entrée size and they said it was so filling.

Vicki and I had 2 bottles of this beautiful Champagne, G H MUMM........
