Detail of Maeta's Cake

Birthday 002.jpg
As though Zofie had not asked for enough, Maeta requested 'a pony with a mouse riding on it.' Amy figured this was a passing fancy, so she asked again a few days later and this request was reiterated. She left it open to revision for several weeks, but ultimately, Maeta was set. Given Amy's success, I have requested a stegosaurus invading Manhattan for my birthday.

Detail of Zofie's cake

When asked about what she wanted on her cake, Zofie asked for a 'mermaid with red hair' and specified chocolate cake. Amy, delivered, noting that she will not likely ask for their input again.... I also note that the shells are fantastic. No, I did not have a hand in them.

Empty Beach on July 4

Chicago was perfect on July 4---under 70 F! We had a great time at the beach; the rest of the good people in Chicago seem to think that it needs to be warmer to make the beach worthwhile.

Amy was very happy with the way this picture came out---city in the back, waves rolling in, the boy is even smiling.
