Love star jasmine? Me too. Smells just as Summer should.
Went to a children's party yesterday. Wore Old School Pucci from about 4 years ago.
This Owl cake was super cute. Fab claws.
Luff this Pucci scarf (Thanks L!). Mr FF and Le Child were Matching to the Hilt.
Last night got kitted up in Chloe for a glamorous 40th Birthday party.
Took my new navy Anya Hindmarch clutch out for its Inaugural Spin.
There was an outside bar made entirely of ice! I expect it'd be melted by now. It looked incredible.
The sky was beautiful. This shot has no filter either!
Remember how Mac brought Moxie back and it sold out? Well my sister found 3 in the UK. Hooray! Moxie is the Bomb. I
've cooked for hours today with Mum. We had turkey for lunch (11/10) and now we're going to a big Family Christmas Party. Goody.

Oh FF merry Christmas. Thank you for all your gorgeous posts. I've been laid up with a week long migraine and am so down, haven't done anything I need to do. Got a jab in arm this arvo fingers crossed it works so I can pack the house and actually head off for Xmas. Poor sprogs will have a sad Xmas if things don't get better. Thank you again you are the bees knees xxx
ReplyDeleteDo you live in Brisbane? Is there anything we can do to help? Let me know and get well soon x
DeleteOh FF! You are adorable. We live on GC. Jab worked after about an hour so we will be on the road today. Lucky my dad and capable husband helped by doing things like making apricot jam for pressies that I was supposed to do.Will do last minute present wrap tonight. Thank you for being so kind xx
DeleteI am a sucker for a Boy and his Dad in matching outfits! That Ice Bar is pretty cool, too.
ReplyDeleteit was pretty amazing x
DeleteHow are you doing all this cooking and partying in this heat and humidity?!! You are a true stalwart and I award you 11/10! I am wilting xx

ReplyDeleteDo you know what santa's bringing you???
no, but Mr FF says not to expect much as these are tough times etc and we have a huge year next year etc.
DeleteHappy Christmas to you N and A xxxx
Pretty dress and I love your clutch. Where do you get the energy for party-hopping in all that heat? I would have been hugging that ice-bar all night.
ReplyDeleteWow, that's a party! I'm slaving over a hot stove, once cake down one to go, don't know how you bake, work, mother, and look fabulous all at the same time.
ReplyDeleteYou look so lovely FF! And how nice did that party look? I envy you staying so trim! Yay for your lipstick!
ReplyDeleteThanks H and I LOVE the lippy too x
DeleteLove your new clutch!
ReplyDeleteThat icy bar is truly impressive...
imagine how vast the freezer must be to make that!
Happy Holidays FF to you and all your family :-)
Happy Christmas in Canada xxx
DeleteYou look wonderful and the clutch looks divine! A BAR MADE OUT OF ICE!!!!! I can imagine that here in the dark and freezing north, but in Australia that is just sooooo wonderfully decadent!!!! I am filled with envy for your blue sky and bare arms!
ReplyDeleteHave a very wonderful Christmas when it comes FF!

DeleteLove the ice bar, have a wonderful Christmas , how exciting for Lttle FF.
ReplyDeleteThanks for adding joy and sparkle to my life
Thank you for reading!! xxx
DeleteDear FF
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful Christmas! It looks as if you've already been off to a Very Good Start!
I'd like to thank you for your blog: the glamour, humour and the down to earth bits as well.
I admire the way you almost always "whistle a happy tune" for followers while admitting that life isn't always easy or happy. It's very important to admit and face the sad or bad things and to be serious sometimes. But your unsinkable humour and glamour are wonderful distractions and I'm sure they've helped lift the spirits of many. In FF speak, luff the blog 11/10.
A wonderful New Year to you, Mr FF and the young Master and your family and friends!
Warmest wishes, Pamela
Thank you for this lovely message.
DeleteI am often sad, disappointed, lonely and worried, but I don't mention those things online- I follow ye olde traditional route and whinge to my friends and sisters!
It's nice to know the blog cheers people up.
Happy Christmas xx
Love the lipstick! What an awesome color. Hope you have a very merry Christmas!
ReplyDeleteyou too x
DeleteI am drooling over that MAC lipstick...might have to go on the hunt to see if it's available Stateside.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the suggestion, Claudia Roden's orange cake, mmmm. :) It's probably quite similar to the one I made last year with almonds, no flour, no butter. I'll look it up to compare.
Your blog....it just makes me smile. :)
Happy Christmas! xo
that cake is the bomb! Happy Christmas x
DeleteMerry Christmas K! You look simply stunning here, love that dress. Hope you and the family have a fab day tomorrow xx
ReplyDeleteHere's to you, FF, and all your Leo gorgeousness. Raise the glass in cheers tomorrow with a lovely sparkling red!
ReplyDeleteMerry, merry ... and all that.
Just want to wish you and your family the warmest of wishes for Christmas and for 2013. You and your blog have been a real highlight of my week all year and hope you know how much you are appreciated. Hope that you and your family have a terrific day tomorrow and that Santa is kind!
