Esther has posted a photo of her Daphne in flower - mine has been out for a few weeks now, and for me it is the first sign that the garden is waking up from winter. It is SUCH a pity that we cannot share the glorious delicate fragrance that these little flowers impart.
On MY list today, I have to finish THE CAKE. It should have been done by now but my loving family ALL got the flu and have been home to share it with ME. (Thanks for that - just what I needed.)
It is going to be a themed party and I have 'snaffled' my Grandfathers Silver Tea Service from my Mum. Now all I have to do is...........
Clean it.
Hi Wendy, Oooh! Your Daphne is lovely. I love the way a little sprig can impart a gentle fragrance to a whole room. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteI havent cleaned silver for quite some time, but I think I remember doing the sink - foil- baking soda- boiling water trick and it always worked for me. Then I would just polish off with a cloth that had brasso remnants on it. That was my quickie version.
Hope you feel better soon, we are just over the flu...argh! it lingers...
Looking forward to some pictures of the cake before it gets eaten!
ReplyDeleteHope all goes well, Wendy, and that you can relax after Saturday.
Beautiful flowers, and hope you have a grand time with the party. Your silver looks like mine I had better get to cleaning mine too.
ReplyDeleteI too am enjoying my Daphne. Happy days. chrisb
