Happy Birthday, Ann!

Well, by the time you get this it's past the day in Oz, but still your birthday in my time zone, so party on! Hope you got to do something fun. :)

If it gets too hot there, just fly here for a few days. Wind chill temps are going to be officially dangerous: -25F to -30F overnight. The "high" tomorrow will be 7F. Ben and I brought in extra big chunks of wood for the wood stove.

So no presents? Not even one you gave yourself?

Happy birthday! May you have many more.

So no presents? Not even one you gave yourself?No thanks! Cool here is anything under 30ºC, and yesterday it was 28 with a breeze. Perfect.

My staff at work gave me a gorgeous over-the-top teacup, saucer and spoon.

Happy birthday! Do something you're not supposed to!Too late for this year, because it ended nearly a day ago, but what a wonderful idea!

I might just do that on Christmas Day or soon thereafter.

[annc]

Happy birthday, Ann!!Thanks, Marjolein!

Oo, wonderful! Wish I could see it!Here's a photo of it. Very ordinary camera and poor conditions, but it gives some idea of its over-the-topness.

[Franca]

It's fabulous! (In its over-the-top way.) I love it. :)

[ElyseC]

My goodness! It's splendid!

[annc]

It's fabulous! (In its over-the-top way.) I love it. :)Me too! And to have a spoon that matches...

[annc]

My goodness! It's splendid!Isn't it!? I haven't been game to make a cup of tea for it yet, just keep admiring it on the bench behind my desk at work.

[iamback]

Quite charming in its innocent ugliness! ;)

[annc]

Quite charming in its innocent ugliness! ;)You have to work in this room to really appreciate it, but you've come very close to its charm. :)

Here's a photo of it. Very ordinary camera and poor conditions, but it gives some idea of its over-the-topness.Very posh. And it goes well with your chair! <g>

[Franca]

And to have a spoon that matches...I know - amazing! The spoon completes the picture. :)

[annc]

Very posh. And it goes well with your chair! <g>That's our trick chair. It sinks down to the lowest height whenever someone sits on it. My desk has too much junk on it to use for photographing fancy cups and saucers. :)
