ANOTHER YEAR OLDER AND DEEPER IN.....CAKE


Happy, happy, joy, joy!!!  Another birthday is here!  Contrary to the card great niece Maddie made me, I am not 24 this year.  Drat.  But 63 will do just fine, thank-you very much.

Big Bore made me two angel food birthday cakes, one for our family group party in Pittsburg Sunday with neph Brandon (41 and holding), and one for today at home.  Maddie and her little brothers decorated the first cake, which was red, white, and blue inside. William, the Birthday King and Queen's official taste-tester, gave his seal of approval to the frosting. I'll spare you the harrowing details about the fight the boys got into over the ownership of the whirligig after it was removed from the cake. 



The second cake has pink frosting with green and red sprinkles, and the inside looks like the results of a fireworks stand explosion.  No pictures of it....yet, but I had a generous piece for breakfast and it tastes better than it looks.  The odds are good that there won't be much left over for July 4th.
