Great post Carolyn 🙂 Enjoy your day. Love the pink cake – my next one will be pink lol x
Thank you!!! I love cooking at weekends and taking photos and blogging! xxx
I LOVE your pictures. Pretty as a tea party! I just made a pink cake (well the frosting anyway) for my daughter’s birthday which is around Valentines Day. Even if your cake was “not the best recipe” the photos are spectacular. What kind of camera do you use?
I took pics of my daughter’s cake and decorations (which doubled for my Hemingway Book Club meeting), but they’re not as good.
You’re a wonderful photographer.

That’s very kind of you to say that…I’m really just teaching myself through trial and error and I do try really hard. My camera is a http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/Excellent-Canon-EOS-M-18MP-Digital-Camera-Red-EF-M-STM-18-55mm-Lens-/322027754815?hash=item4afa59953f:g:efsAAOSw4HVWFN80 so it’s not a full digital SLR but its a lovely little camera although I am wearing them out fast with all the photos I take for work too. I am now using my chest of drawers in my bedroom for food photography as the light is good through the window and I don’t get disturbed there and can just take my time … very basic set up but just love doing it- could happily do this every day as it gives me a lot of satisfaction! Have you photos of yours on your blog? I’ll pop over again for a browse xxx
Just read your blog post http://www.girlinthejitterbugdress.com/hemingway-book-club-cocktails-with-vintage-flair/ and the amount of effort you went to is incredible! Looks absolutely wonderful!!! How many of you ladies in your book club?
Hee hee. (blush) thank you. There are ten love ladies, but we had an extra guess my father-in-law’s wife (which is technically my MIL, but sounds weird to stay step-mother-in-law–lovely lady though).
Anyway, I get kind of fixated or obsessed with “realizing a vision.” The other pictures of the decorations didn’t turn out very good, though, I had all sorts of banners and draping with pink fabric and tool.
We used my daughter’s iphone, but looking at the difference with a REAL camera, at your beautiful pictures, I’m going to have to invest. 🙂 Thanks again for the inspiration. I LOVE your blog. You’re the bees knees!
Great photos – even if the cake didn’t taste so good it looks lovely. Happy mothering (isn’t that what you say) Day.
Great pics Happy Mother`s Day my late mother coloured her icing with Ribena yummy
