50 odd cupcakes for the love of my life!
I wasn't kidding when I said there were no left overs!

We celebrated Christmas early Dec simply because some of us were spending Christmas away, it was also about the time of my birthday and we were saying goodbye to some great friends of ours who we will not be seeing as often as we would like. Some choir friends made it over, sang some, we had plenty to feast on and downed with wine.
Then what with all the catering and hamper packing, when Christmas finally arrived, we took a break and settled for a very cosy family dinner only. New Year's eve? Yes, we threw a small party, coincided it with and for our "daddy dearest's" birthday, split over into the next day with guests for lunch so by the time we said goodbye to our family members who came to spend the loooong holidays with us, I'd sprained my back, was bedridden and the rest of January and Chinese New Year is history!
