Happy Birthday To Me

Today marks the day I am another year older and hopefully a bit wiser and more knowledgeable that the year before.  

There will not be any big party or fan fare.  Hubby's birthday is only a couple of weeks after mine and we often celebrate together so there is likely to be a nice meal or 2 out with family and friends to celebrate both our birthdays. 

Often Hubby and I do not buy each other gifts instead we buy something that we both want.  This year  however Hubby brought me a lovely gift for the kitchen, three lovely Victorinox knives.

There is nothing better than good knives in the kitchen and the boning knife (the bottom one) is something I have wanted for a while.

My mother in law made me a tapestry cushion.  It is actually the second one she has made me as I loved the first so much I asked for a second one to match.

 I feel very lucky to have received such lovely gifts.
