I made a #cake for my in-laws' 60th wedding anniversary. Lemon and elderflower with cream cheese icing, fresh flowers from their garden and dried thistles heather from my mother's day gift from my kids. Turned out ok I think!

Bought this from the author in the street in Toronto. Autobiographical so it's not my usual sort of book, but it's well written and the guy was friendly. He sells his books online at setomas.com if anyone is interested #toronto'sstreetauthor #booksky #amreading
