Trente et un

Most definitely the best thing about birthdays in France is the cake.

Stu and Lil returned from the boulangerie on Sunday morning with this little creation:


My idea of heaven! A giant macaron with rasberry and mango cream filling. Lush.

I also got a giant pain au raisin for brekkie:


And ate a large part of a lemon drizzle cake I'd made the day before:


There were also a few other highlights to my birthday weekend that weren't cake-centred. A nice dinner with friends, a bike ride to the lake, a picnic in the park, an hour long bath in peace and an iPad version of the Sunday Times with a cup of tea in bed. Rock and roll!

Thank you to everyone who sent cards and pressies xxxx
