Well my lovelies - I was a fairly rubbish guest yesterday - did you notice I had crawled behind the couch and fallen asleep whilst you were all partying!! After an exhausting day of teaching on very little sleep it all just got a wee bit too much for me. (There was also a little trail of donut crumbs courtesy of Aimee which would have led you to my partied out presence!)
Okay so it is 11am here in the UK and I am up and about with a wedding dress to finish and I am going to sneak out for a bit with my sweetheart for Sunday Lunch! But before that I have to show you what I have brought to the party today!
Well what do we have here? Mmmm homemade coconut and almond squares - all 2 of them, me thinks some one has been gatecrashing the party and has got to them first! Martini, red wine on a sunday morning! Scandalous! No actually these were taken last night.

Okay I have 3 tales of slumber parties of old and I would love to hear of yours!!
#1 When I lived in London aged 9 or so I used to stay at my best friends Suzanne where we would watch and laugh our socks off at Dolly Parton in 9 - 5 - we were so 80's! Dancing to cheesy music and munching on chocolate ice cream!
#2 Aged 13 and in Scotland now - staying at Dawn's and a terrible experience with a ouija board and a 'ghost' named emily who said she had come to scotland in the 16th century and died in a huge fire - and she could tell us things about us that we did not know about each other - cold draughts and 2 terrified girls!! Was it all for real - I still wonder even today!
#3 This is my favourite! Now aged 15 and I used to stay at my friend Jane's house at least every 2nd weekend - In one adventure ridden weekend with many a catastrophe!
- She had an old horse called Fred Flinstone and we both rode him a few miles down the old railway line to a picnic site where we unpacked our picnic delights. Fred was a tame and slow old soul who never usually needed to be tied up - alas on this occassion he decided he had some spirit still left in him and decided to bolt through the woods and out onto the main road and gallop off into the distance!!! With us in hot pursuit! A car stopped and asked if we needed a lift to go after him - a polite young man - but we had left the saddle and bridle and food at the picnic table - so Jane told me to stay to look after it all and she would come back for me. It was only when she had gone that I started to panic - thinking she was going to be murdered or something - she had just gone off with a man in a car for goodness sake! I sat sobbing while a group of children cam along and asked if they could eat my food! I sat there crying for about 20 minutes with children eating my oranges and yoghurt not knowing what to do, till Jane returned with her mum to tell me Fred had been found right at the back door of her house looking very sorry for himself.
- The VERY SAME weekend - we decided to have a game of seeing how far up the stairs we could jump off onto a pile of blankets and pillows at the bottom of the stairs and who would chicken out first (because that is what you do when you are 15 isn't it). We thought we were keeping ourselves out of trouble after the 'Fred incident'. It was only later that night when we were in our beds that we heard her mother cry 'Why is there a huge dent in the floorboards at the bottom of the stairs!!! She would probably have never known about our antics if I hadn't of let out a shreek of despair under the duvet and discoverd Jane in absolute hysterics under hers!! Needless to say Jane's dad had to pull them up and completely replace the 3 broken floor boards the next weekend - gosh we were popular.
And what do we have here - pie-jimminies and mickey mouse socks! and yep one is inside out!
Okay truth or dare time!! I want to know who your oldest and most embarassing celebrity crush is - and I don't mean the length of time you have had the crush! I mean OLDEST!!
Okay mine are 1) Harrison Ford 2) Jack Nicholson 3) Billy Idol 4) And I think Willie Nelson is just so cute!!!
So you have to write about yours either in the comments or in your blog - and come up with a truth or dare for everyone else too!
Oh Mr Wonk (my dad's old teddy bear since he was born) looks most annoyed that we are about to make face masks out of his honey - oh I am sure he will get over it - honey is not just for eating Mr Wonk!! It will make us even more beautiful too!
Okay peeps - My sunday lunch is calling me now and Mr Cox is impatiently waiting for me to interrupt the party to get dressed so we can go out.
