birthday :)
Today is Edwards eighth birthday, most of this cake is now gone, but it was very yummy!
I’ve just finished making about 60 gingerbread men! (I’m writing this in the early hours of his birthday!)
He will take about 40 into school for them all to have. I object to the thing of taking in a big bag of sweets to share out for their birthday, if they can’t have sweets in their lunchbox, or packets of crisps, then why should they be able to do it for this? I think the world has gone mad!
So Gingerbread Men are my revenge on world madness!!!!!

Great cake – looks delicious and as for 60 gingerbread men you’re a superstar! I love the idea of you rebelling against the mad, mad world with gingerbread men – can’t think of a better way to do it myself!
