Screw the French; yesterday was my Dad's birthday.
What do you get for a guy who has played golf with Bob Hope, has recieved death threats from PETA and gone to the World Series with Rita Hayworth?
Simple!
A giant chocolate cherry cake.
ViAnne brought three pans of lasagne and a huge vat of sauce. Everyone else brought the fixin's and all the grandkids and we had a loud, rowdy delicious dinner. A half dozen of the grandkids ran off to the woods after dinner and almost missed out on the cake.
In addition to dinner, cake and cards, Dad got a report from his doctor that proves that eighty is the new fifty.
Happy Birthday, Dad! Enjoy middle age!
