Eat Cake - part 2

I had a very happy happy birthday yesterday. Thankyou so much to everyone who left me a birthday comment or sent me an email. You all made my day!

I spent most of the day eating! I started off with coffee and cake for beakfast at home (very nutritional I know). I met up with my mum and my sister for lunch and we went to the Mambourin Cafe. I had Thai Chicken Patties for lunch and then Orange and Poppyseed Cake for dessert.

Then for dinner, Mr CurlyPops and I went to Josephs at the Mansion Hotel. I had a Roasted Chicken Breast with Prosciutto, Asparagus & Sun Dried Tomato and then Hazelnut Semifreddo with a Caramel Sauce. The food was absolutely delicious!

I wish it was my birthday everyday!

In other news, I've finally finished some WIP bibs that have been waiting to be finished for a few weeks. The fabric above and below is from Retromummy. I'm going to enter them in Corrie's Fat quarter giveaway competition.

The vintage puppy print below is from my soupy win over at Pip's.

I'll be back later in the day for 'On My Desk'.

Craft Books

I had a nice peaceful afternoon out today. We went here for a lovely relaxing lunch. On the way out we decided to check out the small gift shop and it just so happens that the local library had just had a cleanout of it's books and gave them to the Mambourin shop to sell.

I only had time for a quick look today, (I will be going back next week), but I found these few gems for a total of $6.

These are some of the cute projects in the books.

Had to include the last photo just for a laugh.....remember when it was trendy to tease your fringe and fill it full of hairspray.......now I'm really starting to feel old.

Oh and by the way, if you are looking for kids books, they had stacks of great books for just fifty cents each!
