I have just come back from my Village Jubilee Street Party. It was so nice to sit in the sun with fellow villagers eating and drinking. I felt so sorry for all those people who organised events yesterday in the rain. Us British are pretty resilient though and keep going through most adverse weather conditions! I love all the bunting up and the general feeling of merriment in the air which we only really see at Christmas! I was however not a winner but a loser at our village cake competition. The theme was Commonwealth. I was very proud of my cake which was a crown and then little cupcakes in the sea with flags from all the Commonwealth countries in. I was hopeful until I took it over to the village hall and put it on the table amongst the other cakes that were all absolutely amazing. I didn't win but am proud enough to show you a couple of pictures of it.
Despite the fact that today I was not a winner I do have a winner of my Jubilee giveaway Yippeee. The WINNER is Deborah from 'Bee Happy' http://beehappyhome.blogspot.co.uk/. She has won a cute George V cup from his Silver Jubilee in 1935 that she chose from my shop www.thenostalgickitchen.co.uk. Thanks for entering my giveaway Deborah and well done!!
