Busy, busy, busy! I have had a very eventful week. As usual it has involved baking (when doesn’t it!) This week I played hostess at my first Boden Party. For those of you that don’t know Boden it is a fabulous mail order/online clothing range which plays a big part in my life!
You can imagine it was hard to focus on other things when there were rails and rails of clothing crying out to be tried on! I was very restrained and I didn’t ‘unveil the rails’ until I made sure there were plenty of ‘Make Mine a Cake’ goodies ready to whoo my guests.
I themed my cake pop display around Boden’s 40’s flower design. The colours are rich, and vibrant but particular warm and seasonal. I love the design and colours and I’m finding it hard not to buy the ‘Silver 40’s flower eBook case’ which is for a Kindle (which I don’t have!) My Christmas list this year (including a Kitchenaid Mixer, a super duper flash new camera, a new laptop and now seemingly a Kindle to go with my must have Boden eBook case!) Is getting a bit out of control me thinks!
I used the colours inspired by the 40’sflower design to create
these........
Of course I had to throw some cupcakes into the mix so I used love heart sweets to depict the moment.
Make Mine a cake aside, my Bolton Uni post grad teaching course is in full swing and I did my first full day of teaching by myself this Thursday. I think I need to knuckle down to my studies now as the work load is increasing rapidly!
Today was a great way to end the week when my fab husband whisked me off to a day of pampering at The Mere Spa, Cheshire
Happy Anniversary Hun x
