I am having a lovely day, although I do wish I was closer to my siblings and parents at times like these...BUT...I didn't have to make a cake...as Bridget, a good friend of mine made THIS for me....isn't it perfect! She also treated to lunch yesterday...she made Roti!!! YUM...she's originally from Barbados...she has a Cake business which you can check out ...it's called Bridget Bakes Cakes.
So I won't be sharing the recipe of my Mum's almond cake with you today...BUT...I promise I will one day :-)
This is a painting I finished for a friend as a very belated house warming gift.
I have to dash and get Miss A.
Enjoy your day!!!
