I'll have to have a go at one of those, perhaps a gingerbread Hogwarts.Vanda Symonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09956034768397598056noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9219735658025200238.post-63157705830540221062009-09-21T21:59:36.246+12:002009-09-21T21:59:36.246+12:00I am heartened by those such as yourself who are a...I am heartened by those such as yourself who are a few years younger than moi. The talents of my mother's generation are beginning to reappear, and just as I had put them on the shelf saying to my arthritic fingers "rest you knobbly ones, rest". Lovely, lovely cake too - it looks alive. A memory that your boy will hold forever. I remember my mother's gift to me at his age - a pink hat!Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9219735658025200238.post-71217797226844848282009-09-21T18:23:02.009+12:002009-09-21T18:23:02.009+12:00Your - or, Mr Ten-Year old's - cake is splendi...Your - or, Mr Ten-Year old's - cake is splendid, Vanda! It made me pang for the days when my own trio of offspring would put in their orders for their birthday cakes. We've moved through cats, tortoises, crocodiles and a hovercraft (to name a few!) to 'I'd love you to make a baked Viennese cheesecake, please, Ma?' All in a day (which is how short childhood seems in retrospect.)<br /><br />L, CClaire Beynonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00005365677016923903noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9219735658025200238.post-32642701397380900392009-09-21T12:08:40.522+12:002009-09-21T12:08:40.522+12:00OMG.

I remember looking through cake ...That is amazing.<br /><br />I remember looking through cake books when I was kid dreaming of having a cake, only to find out that I didn't like coconut and many of the decorations used it.<br /><br />Ezri (my oldest) had her 5th yesterday. Disco theme. Stereotypical 5th b'day cake.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.rockshop.co.nz/dave/ebday5.jpg" rel="nofollow">link to cake</a>Dave Bnoreply@blogger.com
