Keep mending broken lines

[sovay]

For her eightieth birthday observed, we celebrated my mother with a three-tier almond cake layered with marzipan icing and raspberry and rose hip preserves, frosted in rose-toned whipped cream, and decorated with pâtes de fruits into the central one of which was socketed the candle to grow on. It looked like a charlotte russe from the Geometric period in slices. We gave her books, cards, balloons, a banner of cats, a pendant like a bronze-pronged sun of creamy golden sapphire on a leather cord. My niece ran around all day with the twins. I am not ready for Daylight Saving Time. I have enough trouble with the regular kind.

What a lovely celebration for your mother!

Daylight Saving Time -- ugh -- I grumpily posted a video about it in my DW and my LJ.

It made her happy! My brother and my husbands were on the scene too, of course. Everybody signed the cards. (spatch signed for Hestia.)

I would just prefer not to.

To a hundred-twenty! The cake sounds incredible. I texted, but you should tell her I’m incredibly sorry to have missed it.
