This birthday was so special because I fell in love with a cake that was NOT chocolate. The moment I sank my teeth into it, the fresh cream just oozed into my mouth. It was light, creamy, and not too heavy or sweet. I’d never imagined that fresh cream fruit cake could taste this divine.
Ever since, I kind of ditched chocolate cake, and would myself surprise family, friends, and colleagues with a fresh cream fruit cake. That birthday was also special because my mother handed me an extra set of keys to drive her brand new car. I was 21 and she wanted to show me that she trusted me. Well, I came through for her and looked after her car quite well. In fact, she insists that I drive her in it even today!
