Happy 3rd Birthday Curling Stones for Lego People!!


It's been birthdays all round this month; it was only last Sunday that I had this delicious cappuccino cupcake to help celebrate Oresome Gallery's 4th Birthday, and it suddenly dawned on me that a certain blog had been going for nearly 3 years!!

Roll forward one week and yes my hazy memory had served me right, however no time to bake a cake as I've been away on the bus this weekend... I did, however, manage to squeeze a little big pastry on board at the last minute...


Eagle eyed readers might notice that there were actually two of these lovely custardy, chocolate thingies (I have no idea what they were, but they were very nice) and, yes, I did share.

Whilst the night was dark, a bit windy, with lashings and lashings of rain in the early hours, we did at least wake up to a nice sunny day


Time to come home and just in case you were missing out on some birthday bead photos, I've saved something VERY special to show you for such an occasion...


A sneak peek* at my all time favourite set of silver beads from Trollbeads... yes, this is an entire set of the Limited Edition Silver China Beads from 2009, and they're mine!  I've paired them here with my turquoise and striped turquoise agate sets which is how I'm currently wearing them.  Still pinching myself that I'm not dreaming this and I have actually found and acquired the full set.

I will no doubt write about these in more detail at some point; but as it's my Blog Birthday I'm going to enjoy the rest of my day with my feet up looking at the pretties on my wrist.

Happy Birthday
Curling Stones for Lego People

Thanks to everyone who helps to make this such a pleasure,
it's always lovely chatting, at events, via email, private message,
forums, directly on here or any other way I meet you...

Enjoy Your Day!
*okay if you were paying attention I had shown you a side shot earlier this month... this is my sneak peek front/bracelet shot... now I'm wondering how many sneak peeks I can do before they are no longer sneak, or a peek? Answers in the comments...

      Lol nice try :) Sadly the chocoloate custardy things are no more... but I'm sure I can rustle something up from somewhere!

      I love writing for pleasure... it's only difficult when the day job gets in the way ;)

      Thank you for reading, it's always lovely to know someone is, as despite running Google Analytics (so I know that people are) the pleasure of writing for someone out there is still a novelty, even after 3 years!

      Thanks Stephanie, I am enjoying my 3rd blogiversary, the only problem is I seem to be eating a cake/pastry/chocolate ice cream each day, will have to wean myself off!

      Although I think the cupcake has been my favourite so far!!

      Thanks Natalie, it's always nice to know that :) It can be a bit random sometimes but that probably sums up my jewellery addiction, I start with a plan but there's always a tangent somewhere :)

      Oh yes and I added a Feast ice cream lolly to this tally yesterday... trouble with indulging in sweet things is I then get cravings for more - must be getting older as I've always preferred savoury over sweet?

      Add the sweet thing (but probably not the ice cream as it takes a while for our tiny freezer compartment to get up to, or down to, temperature) to going away on the bus and yes, for me that is definitely how I like to celebrate :)

      Thanks... I've now added a Cherry Bakewell from yesterday and today a Cappuccino Slice to the list of sweet treats I'm working my through :)

      I'd better put a stop date to this or I'll have to reinforce my bus floor!

      P.S. In my list of dessert treats I added Tiramisu yesterday, tonight I might be dessert/cake/ice cream free! So far so good :)
