Cocktails and cupcakes

It was my birthday this last week and decided to celebrate by having a party. The theme,if you haven't already guessed was cocktails and cupcakes.
G was head barman and mixed the cocktails at our kitchen counter- pink martini's and mojitos served in champagne glasses which were prettily decorated with sugar and strawberries.
Two different flavoured cupcakes - red velvet with cream cheese icing and mojito cupcakes (yes, made with rum!) cake pops, which were a serious hit and have had two requests to please have them at future parties. Alas I forgot to take photos of said cake pops. I also made a red velvet cake, and the entire cake was eaten!(Again, I forgot to take a photo... )

 The cupcakes
 Half the table setting
 The friends and cocktails
 More cocktails (and my new hair cut and colour-it is now red, but you cant really see it in these photos)
 Sugar rims daahling! oooh la la
 Newbies to singstar (what would my party be without a song or two?!)
 Beautiful yellow bouquet
 The sound system
One of my gorgeous gifts - a willow tree person - Free Spirit


All in all, it was great! I was spoilt rotten, and feel  completely blessed! I finished off the weekend by meeting a gorgeous friend of mine who I rarely see and we had a breakfast date with Bean at The Deer Park Cafe. Lovely Jubbly!

I love birthdays!!
