First off, my blog is just that...my blog...hence, as the title states..."a little chatter and fiber work"....HA I know of late my blog contains more eating than fiber but that seems to be my life in the winter! Honest, I am working on some fiber work...but in between....
This past Thursday, Verna (our resident baker phenomenal!) prepared a Birthday Tea for 8 of us! Three of the ladies, who were visiting, each have a March birthday. Hence, a reason for a celebration! Verna, as always, outdid herself starting with the drinks, table setting and food!!! Pictures 'say a thousand words' so here they are!

My first plate! Yes, I refilled it a few times! |

Almost...key word almost...had a hard time eating these cuties! |

Favor boxes filled with chocolate for the BD girls |

Just another cute touch from Verna |

Jan M. made each of us a flower basket |
I made each of the birthday girls a hum bug bag. They got to pic by the 1st BD girl, who was Mary Lee, then Barb and Bonnie's BD is later this month.

What a wonderful afternoon!!!! Thanks again Verna!!!!
Oh those chicks!! And that food! Was Verna a caterer in her former life? She sure did a wonderful job on every single detail of this tea. What a lovely time, and happy day to the BD ladies.
