The day started like this
and finished like this
but in the middle we had:
- a 'gaggle' of bloggers: Tracey (great host, thank you!), Ali, Julie, Emma, Val, Nancy, Alice. (We missed you Kristina!)
- a smidgen of crafting
- an obscene amount of eating
(there was more too: Nancy's viking bread, Ali' 'salty/chocolatey' biscuits, Val's truffles, Tracey's cake...)
- a generouse sprinkle of presents:
- and the best day ever.
Thank you girls, you literally made my day.
Thankyou so much for the wonderful project bag.
I haven't laughed so much in a long time - surely the sign of an excellent day.

Worth slogging through the snow for - my mental health is restored. Thank you!

It was a brilliant day - hope we can all do it again on a longer summers day. Thanks so much for the sweet project bag - mine has already been put into action. Glad you got home safely x

What a day it was - I'm still stuffed, and still smiling. Glad you got home safely - and thank you for the project bag- it's filling up with owls already! Hope we meet again soon.

It looks like you had a lovely day ... isn't it great to have a gang of crafty mates to hang out with. That sponge cake looks scrumptious!

That looks like a truly wonderful day. I like men enough, but there's nothing quite like being in the company of like-minded women! It looks like you felt enriched (not just calorifically speaking!) and inspired. Hope you're enjoying the snow!

I'm so glad the snow didn't scupper our plans.
My kitchen is quite desolate now, having been stripped bare for its new look. As Ali said, Saturday was its swan song!
