Cakelicious Cake
It was my boyfriend Jo's 24th Birthday yesterday, and I made him this cake...
It was really tasty even if I do say so myself! I put fresh cream and jam in the middle, the whiskers are made from mikado and the ears are chocolate orange pieces cut into triangles!
I really wanted to buy him something handmade this year, I spent hours browsing the web and finally decided on this really cool hand printed t-shirt from Slow Loris.
I choose the recording studio design as he has his own home studio and he's a really talented musician.
With his birthday money he has bought us both tickets to watch Liverpool play at Anfield in two weeks time. He's a big Liverpool fan but never gets to watch them play as we don't have Sky TV, and I've never been to a football match before, so hopefully it should be loads of fun and a memorable day out for both of us!

Birthday Goodies
It's my Birthday today, woo!
Right I'm off to enjoy the rest of the day. Happy Wednesday everyone :)
I woke up to discover that my boyfriend had completely covered the kitchen table with balloons (twenty five to be precise, since it's my 25th) and that there were two Birthday cakes in the fridge! No idea how I ended up with two, but I'm certainly not complaining!
I was also lucky enough to receive some lovely presents. My boyfriend bought me a graphics tablet, it's very fancy I have no idea how it works! It's basically a pen and board thing that you plug into your computer that you can draw and write with (well obviously it's far more technical than that, but that's my best description of it!)
It'll be great for drawing templates and playing around with new designs on, as I can just draw them straight onto the computer, instead of having loads of bits of paper that I'm constantly losing. It also apparently makes editing photos loads easier too, I'm going to test it out in Photoshop in a minute.
I also got this really cool T-Shirt from Lazy Oaf. I love all of their stuff, they have such fun colourful designs! Check out this cute fox cushion and these bizarre meat socks!
From my mum I got a ukulele and Monty the fox. He's made by Sara Carr on Folksy. I've had my eye on this cute fox for a while now, so was thrilled when I unwrapped him!
