This year, I got to spend my birthday with my family in Taiwan. I had my eye on one of those cuties in a cake store....but my family members had other ideas. ..*winks*
My mother wanted a chestnut cake [pictured in glassine bag] while my father thought he scored a great deal - cake with ice-cream and a drink. We laughed hysterically when it came...it was a small piece of cake with a scoop of ice-cream and a cup of milk tea! [pictured at bottom of layout]
Okay, there are no people pictures because we were laughing so hard that all the pictures came out blurred...*LOL*
Playing along with the challenge at Once Upon A...Sketch.
