When the clever people at Tesco asked if they could send the boys and myself a little box of Mother’s Day surprises, I (as ever) jumped at the offer – what better day to celebrate the woman of the household than with some home-made goodies and a bit of pampering.
Rather than waffle-on about how much fun it was, or how much Sara enjoyed it, I thought I’d post some of the photos which we took during the day (or weekend). We made glittery cards, served breakfast in bed, made a delicious zesty lemon drizzle cake and an afternoon tea.
A big thank you to the Tesco people for the supplies (including the most ridiculously large lemons we’ve ever seen!) and I hope you all had a great Mother’s Day too, whether as the pamperer or the pamperee!
