Fashionista knew I would be a little
sad that she couldn't come to my Eid party last week. She is the furthest
away of my sisters and the one I get to see the least, although we have our
daily WhatsApp conversations and pics of my beautiful niece alhamdulillah.
She had a prior booking with her husband who does everything for everyone
and never asks for anything in return. Because of this I could not
begrudge their family day, especially knowing he would have cancelled his plans
if he knew I was disappointed.
Being a smart girl, she visited me the
day before the party with her little girl to hang out and brought along the next best
thing to her: cakes for the party to match our colour scheme:
The cakes were so pretty to look at:
The best thing was they tasted amazing
too - soft cake and mouthwatering icing, they went down a treat at the party. Everybody was asking for the recipe, which
