Pop Art.....

Today we celebrated Nikki's birthday, who turns a young sprightly 26 tomorrow.

Three of us split the duties of card, cake and flowers between us; we are nothing if not organised. I also gave her a pair of my hand made earrings.....she was sweet and put them on straight away. I am always a little worried about giving homemade gifts, I worry if people will like them or not.....less so of the fact that they don't actually like what I make, I can deal with that very easily, I just worry that they feel they have to pretend to like them, and I would hate to ever have to put someone in that position!!

I guess I worry too much ;)

And as a treat for the birthday girl (and for ourselves as well) we had chocolate cake for elevenses and then went for a pub lunch. 11 of us discovered a new pub that we were excited to try, 3 of us (including me) tried the scampi and chips, 2 of us got 7 pieces of scampi (which to our standards it not enough) and 1 of us got 9 pieces.

If we are to be under-served I belief it only fair that the portions be consistent.....I was left, after eating every last crumb on my plate still rather hungry.....I don't think we'll be heading back there anytime soon!

And as an extra treat we all went for dessert.

The week has been a slow and long, so it was nice to all be treated ;)

I have another photo shoot on Tuesday and have to get my nails painted.....I was given a colour swatch to match, I think I did a pretty good job, what do you think?

I hope you all treated yourselves on this lovely sunny Friday x
