Well, I celebrated my 50th birthday this week. When you think about being 50 (when you are younger) you don't think of it as a time to celebrate, but when you get here you realize it really is. I have been blessed with 50 wonderful and healthy years. I have been able to go so many places and become friends with so many people. It makes me excited to think about the next 50 years and what God has in store. Anyway, to celebrate I thought it would be fun (funny) to have 50 cakes (including mostly cupcakes). Since word got out and I have some generous family and friends, I began to receive cakes about a week before my birthday. The first one was a milky way cake from my friend Annette (pictured) and the last (I hope) was a strawberry shortcake from the Cocoa Bean (pictured). In between I had a chocolate cream cheese cake (thanks Linda), a German chocolate cake (thanks mom), a banana nut cake (thanks Cindy), a carrot cake, red velvet cupcakes and German chocolate cupcakes. In all, I had close to 50 cakes and of course some help eating them. Although it was fun and funny I would not recommend that anyone else try this. It is definitely not good for the waist line and will not help me get to 60. For that birtday, I need to try to run or walk a long race and begin training for it now. I will say that my favorite was my mother's German chocolate cake. What kind of cake is your favorite? Post your favorite cake under comments.
