This Weekend



It's hopeless when you make plans for a weekend and then you get struck down by a nasty sinus infection, yuk! I think I slept most of yesterday and today I feel like my head is full of weights. No matter, I had a peaceful afternoon, made a french lemon cake and drank mint and green tea, and went through the little pieces of liberty fabric given to me by my mum (she has a very impressive collection) - I'm too scared to use them just yet, they are so pretty! I think I will make some little birds with it.

what lemon cake recipe do you follow? i made a lemon tart on the weekend and it was received well by all who scoffed it. we have heaps of lemons at the moment (from a friend's tree) so would love to make a cake if you have time to post the recipe or direct me to the book? Cheers!

wow, nice pics
sorry to hear you were sick, but maybe you needed a restful weekend

the fabric looks lovely just sitting there - maybe you could put it in one of those fishbowl vases and just enjoy it for a while

world of interiors - yum!

I second the lemon cake recipe request

how were the two new albums?

the nick cave retrospective on RAGE on the weekend was fab
