Kevin's Birthday Cake

[appnut]

Thank you for your kind ear and inspiration when I was going

Rich, I'm so glad Kelly was there for you. I'd not seen him post much at all, but int he back of my mind I'd never forgotten what kelly had gone through and was hoping he still contacted you.

NOT READY TO LET IT DIE

Never alone

Bob, thank you for the vote of encouragement. I have had significant and moving experience with many incredible men on this site. Being retired and somewhat isolated, this group is a fresh look on the world we all share. It can be fun, touching, racy and heart rending. I have learned to take words out of context or get to agitated over a criticism or feeling ignored. I withdrew my membership in the site for a while, but read each post and stayed in touch with the ones who had touched my life in a special way. Together we can offer more to the group with our combined experiences insights and personalities. It has been a wonderful homecoming. I am grateful to you all for patiently waiting for me to grow up a bit and let go of some of my "Rosie" posturing and hurt feelings. Together we're good. With Rich or others facing a challenge or experience they may not have anticipated there are gatekeepers among us who learned the path. It should never be for naught.

Sunbeam Model 12

I've made the 1-2-3-4 cake in the past and it is delish!! Seeing the Model 12 in action makes me want to pull mine out and bake something with it! Love the batter swirls in the photo- looks like the cover of the instruction manual!!
