My sister is celebrating her birthday this week...her last one is her 50's!
I mailed her this pretty Royal Albert January teacup that she can sip her bedtime tea from. However, first I had to set up a table in her honor, with a Chocolate Molten Lava Cake.
Doesn't the teacup look so pretty with this plate that my Mom gave to me?
In January, I always put out this little Goebel pair that my Dad gave to me. They have the sweetest faces.
If you'd like to make this Chocolate Molten Lava Cake, which I also made for my son, Mike's New Year's Eve birthday, check out the recipe here. It's really an easy recipe to make and impress, and it's so good!
Caiden, a junior in high school, received his red cord in an assembly last week, which he will be able to wear on Graduation day. The cord signifies an average of 3.5 or more. Here he is with my daughter, Molly.
I am so thankful that I get to share in these happy events!
Thank you for your visit! xo

Oh, how wonderful for Caiden! Good for him! Your lava cake looks so decadent, Kitty! How perfect for a birthday! I love the Goebel ornaments! I use to sell them when I worked in a jewelry store many years ago and I fell in love with them at that time. Although I don't have any myself, I have gifted people with them. They do have have the most adorable faces! I admire the January teacup and I have always wanted one. I am not really buying any china these days but I still enjoy seeing it. I hope January is a good month for you. It is very cold here today. Enjoy your week! Hugs...Sandi
