A new tea pot, a book with the same title as my blog and luxury hand cream.
10 minutes spent grubbing around in the soil for these....
My favourite garden is having it's once a year opening today. After that I will be together with all my family for delights such as CHOCOLATE cake, trifle,and party food. What more can a girl ask for :o)
I think this is very self indulgent posting today but at 44 I have decided I can do that if I want to. I have been unable to post or catch up on blogs just lately, due to starting a new job that came at me completely out of the blue, more about that later.
Happy Birthday Wendy! Hope you have a lovely day, if chocolate cake's on the menu then all is well :)
You're quite right at 44 you can be as indulgent as you like.
That book looks interesting...let us all know what you think once you've read it.
Are those broad beans? I love broad beans, especially if you pop them out of their skins, they're so tender.
How exciting to be starting a new job, I look forward to hearing more about that.

Good luck on the new job! Out of the blue is often the best, I've found. And a very happy birthday, too.

Happy Birthday greeting (and from the UK too)
I'm here visiting and having a little down time so I'm blog reading. Maybe I should be at a museum but I'm rather full up of street bustle and since I'm with out a book I'm relaxing with a few friends. So with my cuppa I send birthday wishes!
