Happy Birthday Grandma

Each night out at Brinnon we sat around the table playing Pinochle.   This card game I’ve only ever played with my grandparents and it’s part of the experience visiting them.  A bit skill and a bit luck, I must admit I’m pretty good at it (my cheat sheet helps.)
Last night between games we took a break to celebrate my Grandma’s birthday.  We were a day early, but we weren’t going to want cake this morning before we left.  I made a raspberry and cream sponge cake topped with pink candles in the shape of an A for Avis, my grandma’s name.

We sang happy birthday as she blew out the candles in one go.  I sure hope her wish comes true.  Grandma opened her card and we cut the cake.  It was delicious, light and moist just as it should be.  I was pleased with my efforts, and think she enjoyed it too.

Grandma, happy birthday to you!
Love
