Yes another year has flown by, another birthday celebrated and instead of bemoaning being another year older I'm celebrating getting this far.
My darling daughter took me for lunch at a fabulous new eating place called Cosy Club.
Beautiful Art Deco
with a feel of Havana
We both had a delicious Cherry Bakewell Cocktail,
cherry juice and amaretto almond liqueur, Mount Gay rum and a drop of caramel syrup.
It was difficult to decide what to eat, it all sounded delicious. Eventually I chose salmon fishcakes
with hollandaise sauce and a perfectly poached egg, my daughter had a burger in a brioche bun.
We didn't have dessert, opting instead to visit Hotel Chocolat!
These beautiful flowers arrived from my darling Aussie daughter, along with some truffles, and the
following day a bottle of Martini Asti Spumante arrived, she found a supplier in Birmingham to post it.
With a John Lewis voucher from my daughter and a gorgeous rose gold charm
for my Pandora bracelet from my grandson it was a lovely birthday.

DeleteHappy Birthday Polly! What a lovely way to kick off a new year! I love the restaurant - any part of it would make such an interesting miniature vignette! The cocktail sounds delicious! Your girls and grandson are so thoughtful! I hope this turns out to be your best and most adventurous year so far!
ReplyDeleteThank you Jodi. Yes it would make for a good vignette, I liked the solid wood floors and the turquoise walls.
DeleteHappy belated Birthday to you! Sounds like you had a wonderful time.
ReplyDeleteWe went to the Ivy in London recently for my birthday and that building had a really art deco feel to it.
Thank you Joey. I would like to go to the Ivy.
DeleteHappy Belated Birthday, Polly! What a glorious treat and spot to dine with your daughter. It looks wonderful.
ReplyDeleteBelated happy birthday! Glad you had a good day. By the way, does anyone else have a problem commenting here? I start writing but then it leaps away and my writing has disappeared. It usually works second time. It is very odd.
ReplyDeleteYes, I get that as well. Not being a techie, I have no idea why it happens.
DeleteOops, I somehow missed your birthday! Sounds like it was a really great day. Nice idea to celebrate getting so far rather than regretting that another year has gone.
