A little late in posting about Valentines Day, but theres a reason for that.
This year was a little different on Valentines Day, as Maddy asked me not to get anything for her because i send her goodies so often anyway. I wasn't too happy about this but said as long as she didn't get me anything either i'd go along with it.
So that was the plan, until a certain mischievous monkey said she has posted me "just a little something"! She assured me it wasn't much, it had cost less than a pound, so i waited paitently for this mystery gift to arrive.
Well a week passed and nothing, a week and a half and still nothing, so Maddy was by now planning revenge on the postal service! She explained that she had bought me a Valentines muffin as she knows how much i love chocolate muffins with icing on. She has made a lovely box for it, not too girly just simple enough to house a nice prezzy for a guy.
So the postman he brought nuffin....not even my tasty muffin! (i should've been a poet) Anyway on Friday i returned to the house to find the above box in the post...
I love opening gifts from Maddy, always something to look at and be inspired by....
I was like a kid waiting for the sweet shop to open...then low and behold, there inside was a gorgeous muffin!
The box had survived the 2 week postal journy with just a few bangs here and there, but the muffin was in perfect condition! (Apart from my fingerprint at the bottom)
I have to admit, i was starting to have doubts as to whether or not Maddy had eaten it herself, but she was true to her word and this was a pleasure to receive.
I am now off to find my friend Net who is an expert cake maker, i need advice if this will be ok to eat after two weeks! :)
Thanks Maddy xxx
See you soon! :)

I say if there's no mould it's okay to eat!!!
I'm with Joanne...no mold, it's gold! *LOL* It's a miracle there wasn't something green, fuzzy & waving at you when you opened the package, though, especially after traveling two weeks plus to Heaven knows where.
Enjoy your late Valentine's treat, Calv!
♥hugs♥
Calv,
Are you seriously telling me you're worried about a cake that's ONLY 2 weeks old? ;)
Love the packaging - that's one talented lady :)
Not to worry everyone, i ate it during my wait to see if it was safe, and it was lovely! :)
She certainly is talented Nigel, some day i might be able to teach her something for a change lol.
Thanks for stopping by everyone.
you still alive there ? good job i didnt bake it with my cooking skills you would be at the nearest hospital and that would be without the 2 week delay !
Bless! The best pressies are always the cheapest x Glad it got there eventually...we have such a great postal 'service' don't we! tut
It looks yummy...but not as much as the box...that's gorgeous Maddy ♥
