3 is a magic number

I feel like its my birthday or something this week, I have had 3 exquisite presents given to me that made me super haps. I've mentioned before its the small things that make me happy, don't get me wrong I do love the finer things in life when it comes to shoes, bags and clothes but what playa doesn't? However the reality is I have aged before my time though I don't think its a bad thing, I used to love going out most nights of the week, practicing my hip hop hoe dance moves downstairs in Junk and having rap offs with random people in the street at 3am however these days I spend the remaining time I have between running, hanging out with the fellow playas and hustling hard at work in my little home working on patterns, illustrations, little homemade treats and cards so I like to have nice things surrounding me when I'm working on Full time playa business.

Just things like exquisite books for the table, homemade cushions, decorative floral treats, charity shop plates and pots, it is these little treats that make houses homes and with the move back to London for school fast approaching I have been a busy bee making sure I can make my new home playa status. There will be homemade Liberty cushions galore, I might even just have a cushion room?! Luckily my friends and family know me pretty well and like I said this week I was greeted by 3 gifts...



    Treat 1. From the other half of B.unit, Bryony.
Heartshaped mouthfuls..amaze!

Treat 2. From my Aunty. 
The perfect start to my cupcake making set, I like things to match and be consistent so this was a real treat as I can just continue to add to it with different shaped cutters, cupcake cases, you know all the things a baking playa needs. 


Treat 3. From Sarah and Pete
I mentioned before about my favourite couples and Sarah & Pete are up there in my top 5, I have to give credit to Pete for the naming game on the hip hop baking as well,sometimes they get an erratic call mid bake with me shouting the ingredients down the phone at them depending a pun immediately! So I popped over last night for the standard procedure of some light refreshments and chats in their garden and Sar surprised me with these playa treats, little cake holders which look exquisite sat on my desk reminding me I should really get my bake on this weekend. 



Big Thankyou to these Playas (not sure my aunty would like to be referred to as that) but anyway thank you for these delights that snazzed up a playas little palace!!
