Yesterday was my 19th birthday, it was pretty low key, but I thought I would share it with you in a few pictures.

| The very scrummy birthday cake that my mum made for me. A raspberry-sour cream coffee cake from the William-Sonoma baking book. It was really yummy! |
 |
| A few things I received for my birthday. The top image shows a wicker basket which my mum made up with things that will come in handy when I go off to university this September, including a garlic crusher, tea and macaroons! Then two Martha Stewart baking books that I have wanted since we were in Washington (expect to see things from them soon!) The final picture shows a pair of earrings that my next door neighbours gave me. The black in the centre of them is Jet which is actually fossilised monkey puzzle tree. Pretty cool! |

| Nail of the day, I chose this light pink by Essie 'Muchi Muchi" |
 |
| The highlight of the day was when we went out for a family meal at Bills. It was sooo good. We shared the mezze plate (bottom photo) for a starter. I then had the crab and smoked trout fishcakes which were really really tasty. I shared pudding with my dad as I was already very full. We shared the creme brulee which was white chocolate and raspberry. Sooo good! |
So another birthday has come and gone. I wonder what this year has in store for me?
I will have to wait and see...
