Tuesday, March 3, 2020 -- Mattie died 544 weeks ago today.
Tonight's picture was taken in April of 2005, during Mattie's third birthday party! That year Mattie was into Blue's Clues (the kid's show on TV). So naturally he wanted a Blue's themed cake and party. The first three years of Mattie's life, I used the same bakery in Silver Spring, Maryland to design his cakes. The cakes weren't only a visual masterpiece, but they were also delicious!
Quote of the day: Cake is happiness! If you know the way of the cake, you know the way of happiness! If you have a cake in front of you, you should not look any further for joy! ~ C. JoyBell C
Today is in the 60's in Washington, DC. It most definitely feels like spring is in the air. As I look out the window, I can even see daffodils blooming in Mattie's memorial garden.
We took Sunny to Roosevelt Island today. I love walking the Island during the week, when few people are there. Sunny loves the trees and to be surrounded by nature! Even the deer were out and about!
After our walk, we drove to Silver Spring to pick up the cake chocolate ganache cake we ordered for our annual volunteer appreciation dinner tonight. This cake and Mattie's birthday cakes were created by the same bakery!
See a theme!? This was the cake we featured at last year's volunteer dinner. Created by the same bakery. In honor of Mattie last year, I designed an all vanilla cake with strawberries.
I will share photos of tonight's event in tomorrow's blog!
