045. Celebrate my 30th birthday in style! [more info]
My 30th birthday was on March 7th, 2012. Rowan (age 11 months) was sick and as it turned out, I was to come down with the same illness by the weekend. It was a testing day, but here’s a little of what happened:
The day of my birthday… happy chirpy boy when he woke up in the morning turned into a cuddly, lethargic baby who fell asleep on my shoulder two hours later. I made myself red velvet cupcakes and Matt brought home Chinese takeaway and cider!
Surprise! My Mother’s Group made me a cake on Friday, I was so happy that night. 🙂
Mum and I went out to High Tea at the Windsor on the weekend, a treat I’d been looking forward to for a couple of years!
Great food, feeling cute (though a bit unwell) and gorgeous setting.

Mum and I had a treat day planned and regardless of whether I was ill or not (and I really did weigh things up that morning before deciding to go ahead!) we were going to a posh High Tea at the Windsor Hotel. Seriously… it was fantastic, not cheap but the staff made you feel so special and the food was so decadent. Tiny pastries, mouth-watering savouries, little sandwiches, scones, and a dessert bar filled with so many wonderful things!
