That chocolate cake looks delicious, I could certainly manage a slice of that. It was wonderful to see the couple who celebrated 54 years of marriage, they picked a wonderful place to celebrate.

It looks so inviting and cozy! I would take a slice of the double chocolate cake if you wouldn't mind. Cherries in a chocolate roll sound delicious too ... I'd be glad that it didn't all sell if you were asked to take the remainder home ;) Changing my house from winter to summer has never been something I've done. The seasons seem to fly by too quickly! Your little splashes of summertime do make it seem worthwhile though. We've been having a bit too much rain here now too. I'm ready for some real warmth right up until nighttime! Tonight it's gotten too chilly to leave the windows open, and the rain has come down again! I hope we both get some sunshine this weekend Claire!
