Mixed feelings!

I am feeling rather strange at the moment, you see Lewis my eldest left statutory full time education on Friday, It seems hard to believe sixteen years has passed already, where has the time gone?
He is on study leave, his first G.C.S.E is on Tuesday and the last one mid June. His plans are to go onto six form and even though he shouldn't have a problem passing his entry grades I'm flapping around like a headless chicken, stressing and worrying for him, call me daft, but I suppose that's motherhood for you? It's a good job he is so laid backed and focused, that's my boy! he is one cool individual.
Its my birthday on Monday (21st) I have been a very busy girl baking cakes for the gang at work. First we have Blueberry muffins.
Fresh Raspberry muffins, hmmmm! they smell g-o-o-o-o-d!
Lemon drizzle cake, this gorgeous cake is topped with crunchy lemon flavoured syrup.

And finally my most favourite, my famous Cappuchino cake! this cake is a firm favourite with the locust ahemm! the friends at work.

And do you remember that Built by Wendy top pattern ? well I have nearly completed it, I just have to stitch the neck facing , sleeves and hem. I am very pleased with how it is going so far, I'm just wondering if I should have made the side facings in the check print rather than the green.

Your shirt's looking great - it's also an excellent style for concealing cake-munching related bulges! Hope they leave you an enormous slice.
