I do mutter something about a Happy one to The Golfer when we come to but that’s about it. Knowing my luck I’d choke on the lucky coin…..same as I did on a silver threepennypiece in the Christmas pudding when I was a child.

We haven’t stayed up for midnight for a long long time.

I didn’t pick the piece with the coin, though. Of course, the odds weren’t in my favor with 145 pieces that were sold! <br /> I love the way the cake and bread were decorated, bravo!It's a Crazy Worldhttps://texasgirlreplanted.blogspot.com/noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6516133427486832064.post-45304850860304255492023-01-09T10:05:19.502-08:002023-01-09T10:05:19.502-08:00Super cake and bread photos.
