Wow! Have a wonderful Birthday! That is so generous of you to Share your thanks of another Birthday here on Earth. I believe it was a British Tradition to share such joy on One's Birthday. Hence the celebration with a party and favors.
I especially enjoyed your choice of Lemon Cake.

Great goodies! Vintage is my thing. When I was teaching second grade, school started one year on my birthday and I found a button that said, "I'm not old, I'm vintage." Even my seven year olds weren't buying! LOL!

Hello, Cora,
How very generous of you to share all of the wonderful images you have on your blog! AND I enjoy seeing the projects, of course, lol. The items you are giving away are lovely - they seem to match the "Giver". Congratulations on "Image Bonus 50 Celebration. I will be 70 on my BD on Aug. 22, and was thinking about making gifts for the two dear friends who are taking me out to celebrate - perhaps more celebrations should be about giving rather than receiving?
Thank you for the opportunity to participate in your celebration.
Best,

As you know, I really enjoy using your images - thank you so much for the effort you put into collecting and sharing them. And it isn't just 50, because you usually put up at least 4 at a time! So that makes over 200!!

Here's what I did with your little boy - he's so adorable:
