What a gorgeous day - so nice to get out in reasonably pleasant weather on the long drive of almost 200k round trip! Then we parked in the back lane and came in the back gate to this glorious greeting - wisteria with bees and all!.jpg)
Barb is the Hostess with the Mostest and we were waited on all day - not that it is intended to be the plot behind these lovely get togethers - but, gee, it was nice! Here's a pic of a great big, bright, jumbo cushion Barb is teaching - I'm allowed to copy and as I always sit and stitch very straight and upright, this will be a great way to re-vamp my existing cushion. Hmmm, maybe a little more Kaffe?

For you ladies who do love to cook - a 'must make'! Pop over to Lizzie's The Cook and scroll down for this recipe of her Mandarine Cake. I decided to take sweets along for lunch and with the addition of marscapone cheese and a little custard this was Yummo! Thanks, Lizzie!.jpg)
On this side of the country we have missed out on those dreadful duststorms - we still have the cold wind and rain coming off the Indian Ocean. After today, three beautiful sunny days are forecast - that will shake everybody up - I bet nobody stays indoors too long! Off to local Patchwork Group now!♥
Happy Day!

Lots of deliciousness here. Love the purple flowers, beautiful big bright cushion and well cake is always good. Such a cute cake plate. Enjoy the sunshine when it comes.
Girlfriend day is the best, and that pillow will look great in Kaffe's.
I was watching the evening news tonight and they were showing some film of the duststorms. I could barely make-out anything on the screen because the dust was so thick. Glad to hear you're not directly affected.
I tried your link to Lizzie's Kitchen, but it didn't work. Can you provide a corrected link? Thanks Lurline.
