Those who know me well have always been encouraged to participate in my birthday. I love birthdays and celebrations and pomp and ceremony.
Some years ago Bella commented that “no one seemed to be able to turn their birthday into week-long festivals”, like I do. I have always tried to maintain and improve on the tradition every year.
This year was a little quieter than other years – due to a number of circumstances, but never the less I managed to stretch it out and enjoy……..But I was overwhelmed with the warm wishes via cards, messages and Facebook messages I received.
A theme did develop – Remember a while ago I talked about herb scissors?
Well, some newer versions were received..…..

 Swedish version (thanks A & A) |  French version (thanks Meggsi) |
I received a wonderful book and jar of exotic spices - Mayan Chilli Chocolate (bless R & R). The most beautiful smelling soap and candle (always exquisite selection P & T) and the most wonderful tea cosy (thanks Bella).
AND – can you believe it – the Slut’s Cookbook has returned to my bookshelves. After reading my post: A & A tracked down a copy.
And I am so happy to say I am enthralled by the philosophy of this cookbook again. It is so ‘80’s and so much giggle factor!
Happy tastings …..and I hope your birthday in 2013 was fun or will be!!
