Thank you for all the nice messages regarding my sister's surgery. She is out of the operating room and recovering now. During surgery for a hip replacement, it was discovered that she also had a cracked femur. The femur is the thigh bone that extends from the hip to the knee. This explains the terrible pain she has been in lately. It looks like her hospital stay will now be longer. I don't have all the details and am anxiously waiting to hear what could have caused this fracture. I am hoping the worst is behind her now.
Annie is sporting a lovely new look today.
Since she cannot indulge in the treats that were left at my door by my good friend and amazing baker, Sue, she quickly snatched the ribbon to show off to the others.
Just look what I enjoyed with my tea.
These are home-made lemon-lavender Madeleines.
If you pop over to http://readymadecosmos.blogspot.ca/ and visit Sue you will find the recipe. She has quite the story to tell about these little cakes.
They are so delicious they should be illegal.
