Cate in NZ Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Like the other Kate I really should go and do some work, my green tomato chutney's stewing away and probably needs some attention, and the washing definitely needs to meet the washing line. But it's so comfy down here..... and I don't think I've got the energy to move..... and we've hardly managed to touch Kate's cake, only 2 layers gone...... even Lesley's cake's beginning to look inviting........ would anyone mind if I just curled up here for a little while..... and maybe refilled my glass..... my cake plate...... and coffee cup......... and then...... just mabe, rested my eyes, only for the teensiest minute though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SarahJo Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 I missed it ALL ..... any champers left . Had a busy day, with the adopted bunch, then painting bathroom door, and arranging with another Mum, to go and get chooks on Monday . Still ... you lot seem to be very happy, and not at all bothered with all the mess .... someone pass a glass and I'lll stop being a party pooper and assist in the mess making ... . You will of course be pleased to know, that even though I missed the fun on here, I HAVE been wearing my pink band all day, and will continue to wear for breast cancer awareness also. ( pink band ... cancer research ... many people, one reason). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cate in NZ Posted September 30, 2005 Share Posted September 30, 2005 Just showed my daughter some of todays cake highlights- she heard me laughing at Kate's latest posting (surely that imperial blue thing just can't be beaten ), and announced that she'd like Lesley's original offering as her next birthday cake Not sure that I could bring myself to ice that one And, ummm, err, Lesley you know that dozen bottles, I did get just the tiniest bit thirsty whilst cleaning your carpet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
