Jess Turns Nineteen!

In celebrating her b-day Cules made a "potjie" which had loads of veggies,bacon,chuck,brisket and lamb and is slowly prepared,( 4-6 hours) over an open fire...




..and because I have loads of eggs since Cules bought me ten Rhode Island Red hens..

(Sorry,these weren't  cleaned yet...)




I baked her an Angels food cake...





...with white chocolate sauce and berry coulis!

It was the first time ever I baked one and must say we all loved it!

Happy birthday sweetie!!
