One of my good friends celebrated a birthday this week, so even though it was wet and rainy, I had her over for a little cake and tea.

I used a tea towel for the backdrop, one I got in Florence, Italy. I don’t remember what is says exactly, but something about preparing and cooking food for enjoyment, love and family.

I found these simple gold birthday hats at the grocery store and livened them up a bit with twine. I also grabbed the beautiful white flowers to freshen things up.

I really loved these washi tape stirrers with the pop of neon color. You just can’t beat washi!

It was just the two of use, so I made a little cake, and spruced it up with mini oreos. Not heathy, but oh so good with the yellow cake. And I made the T2 quince tea that mentioned in my last post, which was a big hit.

Overall, it was a fun afternoon, even dodging the rain.
