I'm with you on that one. I'm afraid it would take me forever to make the one with the sliced almonds and by the time I was finished, the cake would be stale Hilarious! Hilarious! Hilarious! Hilarious!

Thank you for the birhday wishes, but I decided I really don't need any more birthdays. Rolling my eyes. No cake here, trying not to eat too many sweets but bad habits are hard to change.

Happy belated birthday, Pegi! And Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays to everyone here!

I got some giant pinecones when Tony and I were in Napa Valley one year, on a motorcyle ride, of all things. We pulled off on a very rural road and looked down and there were these HUGE pinecones! Put them in the 'trunk' of the BMW bike, right now they are in my magazine basket as Christmas decoration. I sprayed them with gold spray glitter. I LOVE gold spray glitter, LOL! Though you can't see the glitter that well in this photo...
