Guess who gave us this cake?




 Guess who made this cake?

 I ran into Jane on the way school at the first floor just recently.
She had the kindness to invite my girls to play with her daughters.
Her kids go to the international school and now get a special vacation.
Thai government also lengthen the vacation of my kids by two weeks on account of the flood.

I was really happy to meet Jane`s daughters.
because they knew well with Jo, a friend of mine.

Rachel, Jane`s first child made this cake with my daugthers.
Actually, she is a wonderful cook.                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                             
Rachel and Aylie (the daughters of Mike & Jane Fucella) gave us this cake.
 It`s very tasty. we have it with my neighbors.

They are the gorgeous Fucella girls (my friend called them like this)who made cake well!
