Graciela Custom Cakes

My daughter's communion cake was hand made by a very talented lady Graciella. Her sculptures are hand made by her out of sugar. This is an image of my daughter that she made from a picture. After we ate the cake I removed the sculpture and stored it in my curio as a keepsake for her to remember her first holy communion. I would highly recommend her. If you are in the greater toronto area you should try her out! Her website is http://www.gracielascakes.com/

What A Busy Weekend

Well Madeleine's day finally came on May 4th. We celebrated her first holy communion. We had 23 guests. We had an ivory and blush pink theme. It was nice to have a small crowd. It was intimate and relaxed. Madeleine felt very special. This was her first event. She chose everything from the flavor of the cake to her bombiniere. Girls are much different from boys. Madeleine had to have her say on everything. My son Paolo couldn't care less when we planned his day. As long as we didn't fuss over him he was happy.

Oh well, it's nice to have a bit of both.

The bombiniere were decorated by me. I love decorating. Madeleine chose an english tea cup made in England and we also inserted organic tea. Bombiniere is an italian tradition. We usually hand this out as a thank you to our guests.

Support Your Local Cancer Society

May is a sign of spring and also a Campaign for the Canadian Cancer Society. My husband and I are strong supporters of this great organization. In July of 1998 I gave birth to my second child Massimo. He was born with a large tumour on his left buttock. He was with us a short while (only six months) but we learned so much from him and this horrible horrible disease. The Canadian Cancer Society and The Hospital for Sick Children in Toronto were with us every step of the way. The staff and their services are bar none top notch. So please if you get a chance, donate to both organizations www.cancer.ca or www.sickkids.on.ca

May 26 - June 1 is National Sun Awareness Week
