It looks so delicious!<br /><br />Spending Christmas in warm weather is truly strange. I've done it once, in Auckland, NZ. But right now I cant help but dreaming of warmer pastures - Norway (and most of Europe) is abnormally cold for this time of the year and has been since the beginning of November. I hate this cold! I actually renewed my visa to Australia in case a trip to Oz would materialize in the beginning of the new year. I so long to escape the winter. But the airfares - OMG! It's robbery! With half of my flat still waiting for a refurbishment, I have to make a choice. New kitchen or trip to visit my blogging friends down under? Hm....better start playing some lotto, methinks...Sniffhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06870715601050163917noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3585231781723145091.post-45606332470913303952010-12-03T11:03:38.057+11:002010-12-03T11:03:38.057+11:00I'm sure Kate will snap up a dress like that i...I'm sure Kate will snap up a dress like that immediately :)<br />Great use of the cupcake boxes and your photo angle was clever, too.Pauline Wileshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15387098614220322595noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3585231781723145091.post-84240086018193071762010-12-02T21:05:48.840+11:002010-12-02T21:05:48.840+11:00this is a lovely day!
