An Unusual Celebration

 Just attended a wonderful birthday celebration of a friend's aunt. She turned 87, and is as lively as ever. She was joking around, chatting as if we were longtime acquaintances (I met her for the first time), and was generally in high spirits. Some pics from the event, which involved two cakes. One, a special one from Vienna brought in by her nephew, and another, a home grown one from an Indian vendor, in the shape of a grenade, of all things! Great fun.

Below, the special one from Vienna, Apricot flavoured, and a big deal in Europe.
