A Great Day Out

Hello again.
Hasn't it been a beautiful day?  Lovely sunshine.
Today I took my Mum and son Joe out for lunch to a little gem in Braithwell called the Garden Room.  It is a great little restaurant with the most gorgeous garden with tables and chairs situated in their own little hedged areas which makes each table feel very private.
Unfortunately due to the great number of wasps which I absolutely hate we did have to sit inside today but even so it was extremely pleasant.
Mum and I had big steak, mushroom and onion sandwiches made with crusty bread and Joe had a fruit scone with jam and fresh cream. 
We then had a look around the shop which stocks lots of knick knacks including plaques, hearts and lots and lots of gifts that I would give anything to own.  Unfortunately I thought I had better resist for the time being as I'm not sure what surprises Steve may have in store for me for my Birthday so I will just have to wait a little longer.

Above is a tasty morsel that my daughter-in-law Heather (Miss Cakeaholic) rustled up for us today.  It is a Malt flavoured cupcake and this was the last one.  The flavour was incredible and I can't wait until we meet up next Friday as I have been promised a batch of a surprise flavour as part of my birthday present. 
Well it's bed time now.  Don't the days fly by.
Speak soon and thank you for visiting my blog.  Paula x
