Seriously! Look how pretty this cake is!! Our friend knew that Dave’s birthday is tomorrow and that I would definitely not be baking tonight, so she took it upon herself to make her 3rd ever cake. One of Dave’s all-time favourite cakes is Funfetti, and he only likes a small amount of icing, so he…

There is beauty everywhere. This gorgeous rose bush is in an industrial park in a suburban town, exactly where you do not stop to look for lovely things, passing through on the way to other places. “Keep your thoughts positive because your thoughts become your words.
