This is the Sacher Torte as it came out of the oven (glaze & icing to follow). Victor's cake is...eggplants & tomatoes.
Later on, when Maya will return from her rehearsals, we'll do the eggplant candle blowing and the planting of the Gogosar seeds (obtained with great sacrifices from Romania) Tomorrow, we'll go at the grandparents' house were we'll have ...the regular people's cake.
More photos to follow.
Another thing: Maya's evaluation came today and some of the things her teacher wrote about her - I just HAVE to brag:
"Maya is an exuberant presence in the classroom. She tries to get along with, and include everybody. It's amazing to watch her approach a child who is as different from her as could possibly be, and ask that child to join in on the game she is playing"
"Maya became so invested in our latest read aloud book, Julie of the Wolves, that she actually wrote an eulogy and held a mock funeral for a flawed character that was killed. This thoughtful act speaks for the sense of empathy that Maya brings to both her reading and her interactions with her classmates."
back to Victor's day celebration.
We planted gogosari (more on Maya's birthday_, we had the eggplant "birthday cake - Maya played "Happy Birthday" on the recorder.
