Woohoo! It's Friday, the end of another week. What a hectic one it was! It'll be rounded off in a few minutes by the arrival of my parents (who have just driven 850 km !!). As if we're not stressed enough by Christmas!
AAAAHHHAAAHhh, vendredi, enfin "Friday night with Jonathan Ross" sur BBC1 (Nous avons des amis fort bien équipés en télé...) - Quand je pense que je paye la redevance pour la télé Française.....au secours!
Et quelle semaine de dingues, on a fait du bateau - on vous racontera - des macarons - vous verrez plus tard - et mes parents déboulent de leur Provence, comme si on était pas assez stressé comme ça avec Noël !
But that's the least of my worries at the moment...my major occupation this weekend will be preparing for Neil's birthday on Sunday. And it's a big one - my Miniman will be 40!!!!
Mais en fait, c'est le dernier de mes soucis pour le moment, puisque j'ai quelques bricoles à faire afin de célébrer dignement l'anniversaire de mon "N%$£*" (c'est privé, les petits noms!)
Et cette fois on ne rigole plus, c'est un qui finit par zéro, celui qui fait péter les plombs (surtout les miens :-), il nous fait le coup des 40....donc pour fêter ça, c'est moi qui ferai le thé toute la journée....
So it's likely we'll be away from the computer over the weekend and into early next week...but before we go, here are a few more Christmas items for which will be heading onto Etsy soon.
Alors bien sûr, les jours qui viennent, et le début de la semaine prochaine, ce sera calme plat sur l'interweb, mais au moins, on a une paire de mignonnes choses à vous montrer ;-)
We've come up with some real cuties this week!
A plate of Christmas nibbles
Une assiette de biscuits
Wishing Neil a very "HAPPY BIRTHDAY".....I hope you have a fabulous week-end!!!
ReplyDeleteI adore the 2 christmas puddings...I am so 'tempted'!....I shall have to keep an eye on them!
The plate of 'nibbles' also looks wonferful, looks as though you are having fun with the festive season!
Regards, Linda
Happy 40th Miniman!

Thanks for the birthday wishes!!
ReplyDeleteI have bought the scented biscuits in a shop, here in a city close to mine. I bought a box with four biscuit and they are from France!!
The brand is Mathilde M.
Here you have the link:

If you want next time (perhaps next weekend) that I can go to this shop I can buy it for you and send it. Every box of four biscuits cost me 10.95€
Let me know :)
Happy birthday Neil !!!
ReplyDelete40 is the best age...trust me, I know... I hope you had the best birthday ever Hugs to you both Rosanna
Many thanks to everyone for all the lovely birthday wishes, comments, emails etc :o)
ReplyDeleteThe transition from "thirty-something" to "forty-something" went off without a hitch and if what Rosanna said is true, it should be a great decade!
Can I also take the liberty of publicly thanking Emma for a fantastic birthday weekend - t'es la meilleure xxxx
Gnocchi....ouin ouin!!!
Tu l'as bien mérité,ouin ouin toi même!!! xxxoxoooxoxoxxoo ha!
ReplyDeleteCharlotte, c'est trop tard, mais je suis ravie que ça vous mette l'eau à la bouche:-)
Eva, thank you so much for the tip, I found a couple of ways to get them from the internet, they even have these shaped as meringues and macarons, lovely!
However that would be much more fun to get them from you, I'll update you, muchas gracias;-)
Mince! elle était tellement belle!
ReplyDeleteHaha contente de voir que l'anniversaire s'est passé à merveilles!
Encore joyeux anniversaire, 40 ans, c'est un bon âge! ni trop jeune, ni trop vieux (si, si!)
