Happy 30th Birthday lil sis...

 

Back in NZ again, in time to celebrate my lil sis's 30th birthday. She's the other artist in the family who joins me in continuing as creatives, which I know stems from our great and great-great grandmother's artisan skills.

Those artistic skills were then passed on to her son, our maternal grandfather, who made jewellery, then to my creative mum, who had a plethora of skills, including cooking, and then to us, the present generation, with my children developing in the area too.

This is my lil sis's fave cake from the Cheesecake shop, which is the Unicorn cake with its many colours of 7 layers, including: blue, green, red, pink, purple, orange and yellow.

We absolutely love the light texture of the cake, and the cream is over the top, and we can't help but enjoy bright colours as Samoans, as you only have to visit Samoa to know why.

This week, we are also preparing to celebrate the 21st birthday of my middle child, and it's been a joy to plan with several factors coming into play, but more in another blog. However, we are big in celebrating important milestones in our family with more to come...
