Sweet Sixteen

HAPPY SWEET 16 CERYS 🎈🎉


It is hard to believe that Cerys turned 16 yesterday!!. Her birthday cake request this year was a Freddo frog ice cream cake, so that is what she got.



As it was Monday both Scott and Jodie were working, it was the start of the school holidays so Cerys was off, she opened her cards and gifts in the morning as she was working from 2.45 pm - 6 pm.









She got a big box of British sweets from Caroline to represent her 'sweet' 16, it was fun looking through the sweets that we knew from back home.










From Darren









Happy 16th birthday to our beautiful, brave girl. We are beyond proud of how far you have come these past 20 months. People and situations have not been kind to you to say the least! but you are coming out the other side and are returning back to your sweet self again and to see you smile and hear you laugh once more is truly the greatest gift anyone could ever give me. You have a family who absolutely adore you, never forget that 💟. Hope all your dreams and wishes come true, you deserve to be happy. Love you to the moon and back 💕

Aussie Pie Floater

With Australia day fast approaching, I had to share this Aussie icon. The pie floater is a meat pie submerged in thick pea soup, the pies are traditionally turned upside down sitting or sometimes submerged in the pea soup. The first time I had ever heard of this was while watching an episode of Billy Connolly's Australian tour. He was doing a show in Adelaide and indulged in one of these south Aussie icons. We tried a similar thing called a tiger pie from Harry's Cafe de Wheels on the Sydney harbour, the Tiger is a meat pie served with scoop of mash a scoop of mushy peas and a scoop of gravy, it was really delicious.  A pie floater put simply is a meat pie on top of or covered in green pea soup with a choice of sauce squirted on top, the usual being ketchup, brown sauce, mint sauce, gravy or bbq sauce, some people also enjoy vinegar over their floater, I suppose the options can be endless, whatever 'floats' your pie!!. I searched a few variou
