My 35th Birthday

Ever after I turned 30 I honestly don't remember what birthday I celebrate each year...sad,  I know...but I was once told that things go down hill for women after turning 30! I don't agree with that as I only started to really get to know myself after 30 and I certainly feel my life before Rayray almost seemed futile!

So this year I celebrated my 35th at The Goring.

I think Rayray was staring at the cake! lol

Photo session before food arrived

I loved the ambiance and food. (we were busy chatting and taking photos and drinking, I completely forgot to take the photos!) It was airy, bright, and very spacious which is absolutely essential for us now with a baby in tow. I thought the service was impeccable. The kept the drinks flowing and even got Rayray a soft toy! 

My personal photographer 

Tao was busy taking photos and looking after Rayray (yes since I was the birthday girl, I was allowed to relax and drink!) that we didn't get to take a photo together as a family!!!

Yummy Russian cake from Joce!

Sadly Jocelyn had to work that day so she couldn't join us. Though I was really touched that she got a cake for me and it was the current favourite in the Vale! (as we live in Crosslet Vale) I don't even know how to describe the size of the cake! It was massive! It must have been 10cm thick and a size of a MacBook Pro! (actually I would say a bit wider than the notebook) Basically it is a honey torte with LAYERS of honey sponge cake soaked in luscious caramel creamy filling. I have only tasted from Harrods so I don't know what others taste like but this is soooo good that we actually finished the whole cake!

It was such a glorious day and I felt truly blessed! I might be a year older but I certainly feel a year better!
