For me the actual Mother’s day was today, that is in the morning our daughter Nr. 2 was able to spend some time with us before her shift started. This visit was also for Peter’s Birthday, which is coming up this week. On Peter’s birthday we are going to be in Sydney with daughters Nr.1 and 3. Our son, who lives in Melbourne, is staying in touch by phone. But we did see him in Melbourne at Eastertime, when we were celebrating his birthday. There was one Easter bunny left, which appeared in the pictures we took today.
The big bag was full of gifts from our daughter. Peter did bake the cake and bought the flowers!
I found another picture of a tree log cake. Here it is:

I've lived in Australia since 1959 together with my husband Peter. We have four children, eight grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. I started blogging because I wanted to publish some of my childhood memories. I am blogging now also some of my other memories. I like to publish some photos too as well as a little bit of a diary from the present time. Occasionally I publish a story with a bit of fiction in it. Peter, my husband, is publishing some of his stories under berlioz1935.wordpress.com

Hi Uta. Thanks for sharing your beautiful photos. Peter baked a cake!? I’m impressed. It looks delicious.
It’s ‘Tree-Trunk’ Cake. When you cut it, it looks like a tree-trunk that’s being cut. Peter made the same cake for our son’s birthday, which happened to be on Easter Sunday. We were celebrating that day in Melbourne with family members in Melbourne.
This time the family in Sydney gets what’s left from the Mother’s Day cake (a good half). Luckily the cake is keeping very well, a bit like biscuits. We are celebrating Peter’s birthday with the family in Sydney, going there today and staying till tomorrow.
Thanks Pam, for your comment.
