It was Marcus' birthday on Tuesday in Zac's and as I was short of time - and icing sugar - I cut the cake in half and put one half on top of the other.
You'll notice I also didn't plan out the wording so it seems to say 'Happy Marcus birthday'. Anyway Tim said it was the best cake I've ever made!

We had an asylum seeker asking for cooking pans so I placed an order with Cwtch Mawr (multi-bank*) and was able to give her a wonderful set of Our Place pans and a Kenwood food processor. As they sell for over £100 per pan I was tempted to keep them and give her mine! I think I was more excited to give them than she was to receive! No, she was very happy. She said she was a hair stylist. She looked at me. "I could help you."

Two lovely walks on Pobbles this week with Daughter and dogs.
* Cwtch Mawr is given items by Amazon and other companies and passes them on to people in need.

That was a very clever solution to the icing sugar shortage!
Cwtch Mawr does terrific work.
Marcus must have been very happy with his cake.
I can see how the offer to fix your hair might land a bit awkwardly. She may have been offering in order not to be only a taker.
Your cakes are legendary!
The cake looks yummy
That was a nice thing that you did with the pans.
The cake looks great! Rebekah baked a spice cake today and I'm going to make caramel frosting for it this evening. I wish a hairdresser could do something to help me.
Love,
Janie
I thought so!
People in Zac's tend not to react as you or I might so it wasn't obvious!
Oh she was, Boud. She definitely wants to help and has offered to come and cook or clean.
Thank you.
It's thanks to the people who work and volunteer at cwtch Mawr really, AC.
That sounds good. Caramel frosting mmm.
Great idea with the cake. Love those photos!
