We give thanks

Much for which to be thankful this year not least among them the presence of family and friends with whom to share the bounty with which we are gifted.  And to celebrate, much food and conversation and laughter, and to end the meal, a cake.  A hummingbird cake filled with raffaelo buttercream and covered in marshmallow fondant.  The picture is hand painted with food safe pens and gel food colors, and the words on the facing page are hand printed with food safe pens.
