Happy Wednesday!
I have a busy week this week - a big birthday to celebrate with a 70 year old!
He will hate me for telling you but what the heck - at our age we are lucky to still be alive and kicking!
Yesterday I baked a cake and following Ben's instructions iced it and put a railway track and a model train on top (Edward from Thomas the Tank) - along with 7 candles one for every ten years!!
Here it is....
It won't win any awards but will taste good and Ben and his Grandad will love it I am sure!
As you can imagine - not much time for crafting other than my latest twiddlers...
That's my lot for this week.
I hope you haven't got too much snow.
None here but the wind is cold and the skies are a bit heavy at times.
Have a great week.
xx Jo

What a lovely cake for a lucky Grandad. I agree with your sentiment as I am very glad to be happy and healthy at 70. Enjoy the cake.
Hi Jo, lovely cake, and what a great milestone. Have a lovely week, Hugs, Shaz #3 X
What a lovely cake, Thomas the Tank Engine will always be a favourite of mine. You and Ben made a great choice and I am sure grandad will be delighted.
Love your twiddlers, you make them so interesting with the different wools and stitches.

Hope he had a good birthday and enjoyed the cake - I've made many a Thomas cake in my time, lol!! The twiddlers are all brilliant, you must be able to make them with your eyes closed by now!!
Hugs LLJ 11 xx
As 70 is my next big number I say what the heck. Luckily a few years off though... cake looks fab Helen #1
Happy Birthday to Mr Twiglet! Clever Ben to insist on Edward - it's the perfect decoration for a 70 year old. As you say, once in our 70s/80s every birthday is reason to celebrate! Have a great week. Hugs, Ellie x #19
‘Happy Birthday” to birthday boy and I love the bright colors of the twiddles. Nice job!
Aw, he won’t mind about being 70 with Ben to get all excited and birthday ish with, that’s the beauty of grandsons, huh! Great cake, I can almost taste it with my cuppa!

I love those Twiddlers! We don't have much snow here, just a covering of the lawns, not too much, just enough to say "it's winter!" It's actually been fairly "warm" for this time of year here. The cake looks delicious! Thanks for sharing, have a great week! Lindart #23
