Thank you for the burst of sunshine on a cold and wet Melbourne day! There has to be a future "Master Chef" somewhere in your family! And how do you manage to not put any weight on??
Love the sunset reflected in the ripples.
If I lived at your house, I think perhaps I would weigh more than I do!!!
I must admit that the first one of the flower is really breathtaking. I don't want to give comment on flowers on the internet because there are so many but for this I make an exception. Still stubborn as I am could you try to get rid of the two green corners left and right in the bottom but still it is a great one. The food also looks delicious. Great posting.
A delicious week for sure, love the treats, the beautiful flowers and the last sky shots is stunning! Lovely images, have a happy week ahead.
Wow, what a spectacular week. It's all wonderful to me.

Oh my....each and every photo is truly delicious!!
If I had to write a thousand word essay on this post it could easily be done - these photos are so wonderful stating with the very first. So pleased you took in the delights - and of course hoping that being you're the mummy, that you were offered seconds.
What a fantastic week in pics. The photos are amazing.
Desde luego un magnífico fin de semana...un abrazo desde Murcia

Yes! The only word for your first photo, the colour, texture...is Delicious :) Cake for the eyes!
Do you have any professional bakers in your family? If not I think it likely you soon will.
Tydzień był faktycznie pyszny i rodzinny. Zdjęcia z niego są świetne, a ostatnie piękne. Pozdrawiam.
Week was actually delicious and family. Pictures of it are great, and the last beautiful. Yours.
This shot of the calendula is totally amazing Karen! Love it
Breathtaking pictures! Awesome:)
Juste magnifique !!!
all that baking looks delicious!
Your photos are spectacular! I would like to live in them!! Do you print them to put on your walls or turn into calendars?
These shots are so crisp. I do adore the flower shot.
wow love your first image too...the treats look amazing..
Karen, I swear I've gained 5 pounds just looking at these photographs. Everything looks so yummy!
I absolutely love this flower. The detail you have captured in it is amazing. Beautifully done!
I can not believe how good this first picture is, no clue how you do this.
Greetings,

Beautiful and delicious looking images. I always love looking at your pictures they are such eye candy!
that flower knows how to "show off". Great catch. :)
A delicious post too. I would love to sample all that food .
Your flower macros are so lovely!!! Great photo week!
Thank you for stopping by my blog the other week and for your kind comments. What beautiful photos you have taken. You are a true talent!
I don't know which one is more delicious...the flower, the food, or the sunset...all gorgeous!!
A very lovely week!
All the treats of your week looked like I would enjoy eating them...that does not mean I should though, better at your house way across the ocean!
The sponge cake especially made me take notice because I have been thinking about baking a sponge cake these days....what jam did you spread between those luscious layers?
Hi Cathy, the sponge was filled with raspberry jam (family favourite) and whipped cream - not too much. It was very nice and not overly sweet, just a dusting of icing sugar on top - all done by Master T.
Your photographs are divine xx
Well girly all I can say is you sure do know how to use that camera. Such gorgeous and yummy shots my friend.
I went to lunch with my girlfriends today and one of them brought a quilt to show us that she had made. It had photos on the quilt. I asked my friend how much it cost her to have it made and she said $600. US dollars. It was a gorgeous quilt. I thought of your quilts when she show me.. You do beautiful work my friend..
