Giveaway Winner!

I sincerely apologise for taking so long to announce my give-away winner. You see, ever since Halloween life has been a little bit hectic, as my Mum fell off a step ladder and broke her leg!
After a few days in hospital we found out she probably wont need surgery, and she was able to come home with crutches and a full leg half-cast. I am sure she will come to enjoy her forced time off work once she learns how to relax a bit!
I in the mean time have become the stand in 'Mum' in the household, keeping busy with a bigger share of housework, cooking and being the taxi driver!! So Mum, I do hope you rest up and...



I really enjoyed reading every one's responses to my give-away question, there were some really interesting answers. The majority of people seemed to go for dazzlingly clever, and that is what I would have chosen too. However there were some very good responses for angelically good and divinely beautiful as well.
I am overwhelmed by all my new followers, I wish you a very warm welcome and hope you enjoy my blog! I will hopefully be able to visit you all soon when I have a chance once we settle into a new routine here at home.

So without further ado, the winner is...



Congratulations Cat a.k.a Little Miss Cupcake! I think fate/karma must be on your side. And I am a winner too, it's so exciting that my bag is going to be paraded around the streets of Paris! I will be in touch soon to get your postal details!

I had a lovely Birthday on Friday, thank you very much for the well wishes. Had a fantastic family dinner at my favourite Chinese place called Lim's - the reason its my favourite? The staff sing me 'Happy Birthday', while bringing me a sparkler laden fried ice cream dessert, AND I get a nice bottle of champagne from them too, what more could a girl want?

I will leave you with my VERY late picture of the Halloween cupcakes I made. I hope you all had an awesome Halloween :) I was dressed up as a mermaid before our unexpected trip to the hospital!


Please send my Mum some get well love, it all helps :)

Your poor mum - my mum broke her leg about two years ago - so I understand her pain! I hope she recovers very soon. Where is the photo of your mermaid costume? I bet you had an awesome wig to go with it.
