Made in England, Susan grew up particularly enjoying collecting second hand books and visiting jumble sales for bargains. She moved to Australia where she developed a passion for 'Treasure' hunting in opportunity shops. This led to her home becoming a refuge for orphaned bears and an assortment of hand made objects. Susan loves to spend her time creating beautiful country crafts and writing poems about her creations and life experiences. When not busily sewing or writing Susan enjoys hosting themed afternoon teas for her friends and relaxing in her home on the beautiful Gold Coast. May you enjoy Simply Susan's musings.

Sweet Beauty

I had the delightful privileged of visiting a cake decorating exhibition held at Mt Cootha, Brisbane this afternoon. Our daughter had entered a wedding cake in the novice section and we went along to support and encourage her and because I wanted to see what she was up against!

AMAZING what people can do with icing, beautiful, skilled craft that looks so realistic and delightful. Various categories and degrees of expertise made the display very interesting. I take my hat off to all the entrants and appreciate the time and effort that went into making such amazing exhibits.

Afterwards, we continued up to the top of the Mount and surveyed Brisbane from a different, beautiful perspective. Great place for a picnic, indeed a wedding took place during our short time up there and lots of people were making the most of the venue and the beautiful Sunday afternoon.
Have a peep at the view


Have a great week
