Anna May Wong’s Tea Cakes

Anna Mae Wong
“I’ve come to the conclusion that everybody should marry,
including me.”
Well, I’ll see if anyone ever asks me Anna…I love this picture, and I am going to measure my own hair when I get home to see if it is as long as Anna’s. Could be…

Had a lovely time with little Shirley last night working on her papier mache project. She seemed most peturbed that one of the legs on her trouser bowl was wonky – having one wonky leg myself I couldn’t really see the problem. Tonight we shall paint it.

Paulette had made some AMW Tea Cakes and totally delicious they were too. MUCH nicer than the ones I made, I think she adds some secret ingredient when she is baking things to make them taste so good. Or maybe it is the magic of the heart shaped baking cases. I bought Paulette some of these as a “thank you” gift for looking after me during my post-break-up-trauma-period and they are such lovely things.

I was extremely happy to be back in the fold there, especially when Paulette had to search for something in the food cupboard near the back door. Pleased to see that the lightbulb has STILL not been replaced, making it necessary for Paulette to do the thing which always makes me laugh: don the head torch.
