Wish Upon a Star . . .

.
.
.
Someone had a birthday just the other day, sweet seventeen. She is a shining light in my life. La Grenouille made a rasberry topped dessert for the occasion, for someone who loves rasberries. Happy Birthday Honey !
.
And to you good people who drop in here from time to time, I'd just like to say "Thank You" for your comments on the post below this one. If I could blow out a candle and make a wish, or make a wish upon a star, it would be to wish that one day that dream will come true. Where there is a will... right ?

  9. Happy Birthday to her!

    What a beautiful dessert! I was all about cherries when I turned 17 and I still have fond memories of the cherry pie that my mother made for me on that day. :)

  10. One's child does shine a light into one's very soul that no other can do. Each light is unique and precious. I can sense the deep raspberry red love glowing in your heart for your precious girl. And what a loving tribute confected with the amazing culinary skills of La Grenouille.

    Happy Birthday to Sweet Seventeen--may her wishes come true.

  27. My sweet twins turned 19 last week. They are the heart behind my heart as well.

    I noticed on your Chinese lantern post that one of the green flowers is shaped like a heart. May I use this for Guest Heart Thursday sometime?
