Today is my birthday. This is a pic of my mother and me when I was about 4-5 months old. She was a swish 34 year old, wasn't she? How time flies - now she is 80 and I am 46!~
It is tradition at our work that the birthday person has to bring in a cake for 'morning smoko' so I made 2 batches of muffins this morning. Cinnamon Crumble and Triple Choc Chip - ahem, I'm afraid you'll have to ask Betty Crocker for the recipes! The cinnamon crumbles are my favourite!~
After a full day in the office, we are off to Mt. Gambier for dinner at a nice Thai restaurant, Wild Ginger. It will be yummy! Lucky me!

ReplyDeleteI remember some years ago asking a French girl who was staying for a few weeks if there was anything in particular she wanted to do on Bastille Day. She hadn't a clue what I meant!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Joolz. Those muffins look tasty - I bet there was no sickies thrown THAT day!
Heck, if it's 14th today it must be 17th on Saturday so sis's birthday. Time to teach Keith how to make cupcakes I think
ReplyDeleteHAPPY BIRTHDAY JOOLZ! what a wonderful treat and tradition, but a lot of work on your part. You are Betty Crocker aren't you? I have never known a person who is such a delightful and brilliant cook as you are! I just love reading your posts! HOPE YOUR DAY WAS FILLED WITH ALL YOUR DREAMS! You certainly deserve them!
ReplyDeleteHappy Birthday Joolz!! Don't let them work you to hard today. Cuppa's & cupcakes sounds good. Hope you enjoy your dinner tonight. How far do you have to travel?? & do you get a lot of roos on the road at night or is it a main & busy thoroughfare??
ReplyDeleteHappy birthday Joolz, I hope you had a great day, and a lovely dinner.
