I now find I enjoy the quiet more than I ever thought I would. Both kids married, one just down the street. But we don't see them often enough :) The cake looks wonderful. I made one today but hated the icing. I will make another batch (new recipe) tomorrow and see if I can make it come together. Oh well!Tricia Buicehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01505658467969665618noreply@blogger.com
