The icing on the cake...


Such a love affair I have with sweets...

Earlier this week we celebrated my (gulp) 60th birthday.
The cake was DE-licious!

I was spoiled with lovely cards and gifts from family and friends ....

Bur now that the birthday is over and the cake is but a memory, it's time to get back on track with more sensible eating habits! How I wish I was one of those people who didn't care for desserts!! It would make things so much easier! 


Have a great week, everyone!

    Awwwww, Happy (Late) Birthday, Donna. We are both September "babies." My birthday was today! woo hoo It was a gala, too.

    I celebrate the entire MONTH! Ha! I know what you mean about sweets. It's SOOOOO HARD to resist. But I feel awful when I do eat them.

    Anyway, take care! Love to visit your sweet blog and love it when you stop by mine.

    May your new year of life be FABULOUS! Susan

    Belated Happy Birthday! 60 is the new 20. Okay, that might be a bit of a stretch, but it's still a great, young age! Enjoy! :)

    Happy belated Birthday Donna! What a pretty cake, almost too pretty to cut. Calories consumed on your birthday never add pounds. Didn't you know that???

    Big Hugs,
    Susan and Bentley
