This week, I am heading off on a trip to India, for 5 weeks. Since I have not been a world traveler, this seems like a good time to start a blog, so those of you who are interested can follow along.
Today, after church, we had family and friends over for lunch, to celebrate recent and upcoming birthdays, and to have some quality time before I leave on the trip on Wednesday. It was Albert's birthday last week, but since most of the family was away at a family wedding in Winnipeg, we two celebrated by cleaning the floors at a large department store. I felt we could possibly do more. Joyce and Robin bought a birthday cake. He seemed to like it.
It is also our son Roy's birthday on Friday, so Robin baked him a red velvet cake. This is almost an annual event, since it is his favorite kind of birthday cake. In case you haven't tried it, Red Velvet cake is a cake you must not eat if you react to food colouring. It is very red, usually with white icing. Very interesting colour contrasts.
Anyway, I got to visit with lots of people, hold all the babies, eat good food , and even sing for a while with everyone. A very good day.
Thinking of you tonight!
