40th Birthday Celebration
Let’s celebrate!
This episode is all about celebration. Celebrating your achievements, big and small. It could be a birthday. It could be creating a new habit or reaching a goal. And letโs not, of course, forget those mini milestones along the way. And the surprises.ย Those strange and wonderful things that make for good stories. Life is all about storytelling. Iโll tell you about some unusual things Iโve experienced lately, from running adventures to birthday miracles.
The magnificent birthday rainbow that appeared in our kitchen window…
Colour at Kew
Look at this stunning fellow!
Amongst the bursts of red flowers and perfectly raked zen gravel, there was right before usโฆ a brilliantly coloured, glorious peacock. Iโm not sure how many peacocks there are at Kew Gardens but Iโve never seen one up close.
This is Howard, my 40th birthday miracle peacock, walking gracefully across the screen like a film star. Yes, he knows heโs gorgeous.
Yum!
Ben made me THE most delicious birthday cake.
It’s the Chocolate Guinness Cake with Baileys Irish Cream from Ottolenghi’s Sweet. The perfect celebration cake. Ever so decadent and wickedly scrumptious.
Here are some pics to drool over until you make your own…
