Afternoon

It was a lovely afternoon spent in the company of two people who didn't bicker much. We ate our weight in pho and cream puffs, looked at t-shirts, vintage clothes, sunglasses (which they both acquired) and records and CDs. We also acquired many delicious things for dessert.
Now we are home, we have had some tea and then I took pictures of Kit and Mike with their new posh glasses.






It is so hard being fabulous.


Very Serious youth.


A rare smiling picture of Mike. I had to start to tell a joke to make him laugh.



Very easy strawberry cake from Martha Stewart magazine.

Kit looks so ... "hollywood - old school"

ok this is not really related to this post but I have been meaning to tell yuo that I bought the cucina & famiglia book. Everything looks so delicious, thanks for the advice on that book :).

Isn't that a great book? I love it.

I actually thought she was you. Your sister looks so much like you.

The Gibson girls are all quite lovely.

And I can certainly see the familial resemblance in the smile on her brother, in that 3rd photo. Even the position of the hand, slight tilt of the head... I do believe I've seen Miss Gennie strike a similar pose on occasion.

Really we are all hams.

We do look quite a bit alike. She has a different nose and light-colored hair. But other than that we have a very similar face shape.

That cake looks so good!

The best part? It is super simple to make. It is one of my new favorite things to make. Hardly takes any time to put together and it looks pretty and add a bit of whipped cream if you like and voila...dessert.
