Sisters

I had the pleasure of spending time with 2 of my sisters yesterday - without any of our children.  It was also an opportunity to check out my sister's new kitchen.  It certainly had the "wow" look when you walked in - all very swish.

Janet cooked us the yummiest meal - not only did she inherit the whole families supply of "neat and tidy" genes but she can cook too.  We started with French onion soup.


Then, stuffed chicken breast wrapped in prosciutto served on a bed of potato mash with sundried tomato, beans, with roasted mushroom, olives and garlic cloves.  I think the photo says it all.


Followed by a simple dessert - hah, yeah right...  Homemade waffles, ice cream and mixed berry coulis.




As it was also Janet's birthday so I made a Red Velvet cake with cream cheese icing.  Not that we had any room left for it.   I did like the glow in the dark candles.




Do you like our tiara's?  We got them for $10 each - unwanted bridal stock. 

Shirley had made Janet and I a tea cosy each - sew clever.  Which I just happen to be using this morning.



In some ways I look forward to the boys being more independent so I can spend more time with my sisters - well sort of...

It is a pretty tea cup isn't it - lovely to drink out of too. I got it from a realllllly nice lady - I think you'd like her. xxx

I'm jealous. I always wanted a sister, lucky you to have 2. I've only got a brother and we're not even remotely close.
You will have lots of fun ahead I'm sure - the three of you look like a fun trio! cheers Wendy

I actually have 3 sisters but the eldest lives overseas. I was a mistake Wendy, so there are 7, 10 and 12 years between my sisters and I. Because of the age gap I didn't really get to "play" with them when I was little. My eldest sister used to get stuck taking me with her when she went out with her boyfriend - lucky her!!! Hope you're having a great weekend.
