Now this sounds like Cinderella off to the ball one night and then back into the cleaning the next. At least you got to go to the ball, i feel like i spend my life cleaning and it never ends. Your kitchen and all your bibs and bobs are wonderful, love seeing what people buy and have!! Those roses are stunning. I havent tried drying any of mine - stupid question but how do you actually do it? Well done to your son, no wonder you are proud, i would be too! Have a great week ahead - Mel xxx

Hi Andrea,
Ooooooooh I just love your kitchen, all the little knick knacks look really stunning. I keep forgetting to cut my roses & dry them, we have had so much rain here the past week most of them have been damaged.
Its no wonder you are so proud of your son, sounds like he could be a bit of a natural with Japanese huh. Ok Sweet Im off, have a house to clean.
Enjoy your day

Hi Andrea
Goodness what an exciting time you've had! I can't believe how young your Mum looks and of course you looked gorgeous for your night out, I bet that was a night you'll never forget. Congrats. to your son, you have every right to be a proud Mum. Your kitchen looks great, lots of treasures, yet not to cluttered looking, maybe cause you've kept the colours similar, anyway doesn't matter whatever you did it, it worked. Glad your Christmas print arrived and poor you with the bung elbow, I've had similar, very painful, very annoying and as we get older things seem to take longer to mend, patience please Andrea!

Hi Andrea,
I love your kitchen, I could be more inclined to cook if it was in such a lovely enviroment like yours.
Hey you are never a 'pain' talking about your sons, be proud instead! What an achievment to have come third & only having been there 2 months.
