Bright balloons, grey day

So now we are on to celebrating the third (and last) birthday of the week after Daddy hazelh last Friday, and Mr hazelh on Saturday. Tonight my friend K arrives with three girlfriends from Northumberland for a weekend of partying to mark her 50th birthday - hence the balloons.

In preparation for the weekend today I have made 12 chocolate mousses, 6 lemon possets, and 3 curries while Mr hazelh has baked bread and iced a fruit cake that I made for K a few weeks ago. He's also been adding to our stock of karaoke tunes for a party tomorrow night. Tidying up the flat and making beds for everyone is another task that has kept us busy today.

It may be grey outside, but it's going to be a fun weekend here. I hope it will be the same where you are too :-)
