I love birthdays! The years don’t matter as much as the life within those years. When Ron had a “special” birthday a while ago, we decided to play it low-key. But when his family dropped in unexpectedly, the day became even more special. Granddaughters Lyndsay and Sydney brought Sydney’s miniature tea set, and the adults brought scones. I hustled to set the table, and fortunately had Red Velvet Cupcakes on hand (see Note). Before we knew it, we had an impromptu party! You needn’t wait for a “special” day to celebrate life. Just go ahead and do it!

| Never be afraid to introduce more color into your life! |

| Sydney’s tiny tea set made Ron’s birthday memorable! |

Tea never tasted better! Don’t be shy, Dollinks!
Start making memories in your own special way! |
Note: See the Index under Cakes: Red Velvet. For cupcakes, reduce baking time to about 20 min., until toothpick inserted at center of test cupcake comes out dry. A little secret, Dollinks ... I bought these lovely cupcakes! Wonder Woman, I ain’t.
