Afternoon Tea With Miss Cake

You may have noticed from past blogs that I am rather partial to an afternoon tea. And a cup (make that multiple cups) of tea. In fact I have a steady stream of tea on tap throughout the day and I struggle if I am far from a kettle. Glasto was a struggle on the tea aspect this year I tell you, as I sacrificied my camp kettle and stove to make way for more Rose.

So, what better theme for a Miss Cake's accessories range than Afternoon Tea! The first colour scheme to come out of this is Pink Sunshine (pink, orange and gold). Remember that song by Fuzzbox (or according to Wikipedia 'We've Got  a Fuzzbox and We're Gonna Use It' - now that is a cool name for a band). Wiki also tells me it is from 1989, which would take me back to the days of Seaford County Primary.

Pink also seems to pop up in my repertoire often. And after Pink Sunshine came Patriotic. As when I think of afternoon tea I think of all things British and the Union Jack and all that.

And on another really very amazingly exciting note work has begun on Miss Cake's very own online shop, so watch this space.... ( you might as well have a cup of tea whilst you wait, as I am)

Hey there, Mister Reindeer

Hey there Mr Reindeer! (Sang to the tune of ELO). He is my new favourite Miss Cake item and my inspiration for all things Christmassy. He will be decorating his way round me and my house for the next few months. Mr Cake suggested a Swarovski red nose would suit him, what d'ya reckon?

Bridezilla!


Bridezilla! Installs fear in us all! She is a monster wedding machine with a table plan for a brain and a veil tail, barking demands at her bridesmaids for more champers. Oh ok, maybe the last bit is how I plan to be when I get wed, champers on tap is what I will expect. 'More Wine, More Wine'. Just you wait for my hen do.

And I am going to rejoice in my Bridezilla-ness, when Mr Cake and I actually have our Big Day. We are partly there with the engagement and a vague exotic Sri-Lankan plan. No pink fluff and fairy tale churches for me though, thanks.

You all know a Bridezilla. So buy her this necklace! And remember - Bridezillas are very specific about their colour scheme, hence the rainbow of colours to choose from.
