My nephew Joe and his girlfriend, Jazmin, from California, are visiting us.
This morning I told them they were responsible for creating a dinosaur cake for Gabriel's fourth birthday. They rose to the occasion without hesitation, even though neither had baked a cake nor made frosting. I added that I did not have a mold for a dinosaur cake.
I thought it would be a fun-loving memory of their time in France. Yesterday, we spent the entire afternoon at sea in Cassis. Today we decorated, they baked, and I cooked.
Voila, success, a chocolate dinosaur cake with a blueberry eye.
Gabriel was pleased.
