Heritage Zen:: Happy Birthday Mom

(Original Image and Text, Copyright (c) 2011 Cynthia Shenette) This was the first birthday cake I made for my mom. As you can see I had a little, uh, issue with the frosting. Luckily my cake decorating skills have improved over the years. My mom would have been 90 today. There isn't a day since she died that I don't think of her or miss her. Happy Birthday, Mom. Love you.
