a bit partied out

Mark and I celebrated...our 40th birthdays...by having friends and family @ our place for a PINK AND BLACK party... the night was fantastic.. the rain stayed away (well it did for most of the night and then in was only a light rain).

I did get growled at for not warming the mini quiches and the fritters...both of which I think are nice cold... I think even my home made sausage rolls are yummier not warm...but hey it was my party and I'll do what I want to...so there..

Not that I spent the night in the kitchen...my lovely nieces did that for me..thank you thank you thank you.

I made the b'day cake...and Nicole decorated it in pink ganache...and black edible glitter...and other sparkley bits..

I NEVER get up and dance...but did on this night...I was still dancing at 3...with Jimmy and Daves friend Rachael..

We finished up about 4 in the morning..with Mark and Eric going to bed at 4.30am...one 2 of Marks mates didn't get any sleep.. one drove home at 6...and the other just sat up in the chair...lol

vodka jelly shot anyone??

no...ok...more for me..
