The scent of the weekend

At the present moment I can whiff the scent of beef bourguignon bubbling away, which means that the weekend is almost upon us.

We have friends coming over for dinner, so I have decided to finally try out this classic French stew. I really hope it turn out OK, if the smell is anything to go by it should be just fine. I'm not one for being too adventurous when entertaining, in fact it's Skip who usually cooks as he is a far better cook than I. Fingers crossed and I'll let you know how I go.

This weekend the girls and I are having my cousins over for afternoon tea. Skip is hitting the races with some mates, so it will be a girly affair at home. Hopefully it's sunny so we can sit outside and nibble on these cupcakes:



Other than that we have a pretty quiet time planned. Coffee, yummy food, papers and  some sleeeeeep. 

What are you doing this weekend?

  1. Sounds like you're in for a lovely weekend. We're off to the art gallery on Saturday arvo. We've been inspired by the book 'What Luke saw' (or something like that, it was a library book and great but I should write these things down!). Otherwise, keeping it quiet and homebased. Lovely!
