Now, you have to understand that one of Edith's greatest pleasures in life is munching on ginger gem cookies made by Wheatberries, a popular coffee stop here on the Sunshine Coast. Well, some bright button (Penny? Roz?) got the idea of turning a pair of over-sized ginger gems into a wonderful cake for the event. The folks at Wheatberries were a bit hesitant at first, stating they couldn't be certain the large cookies would bake all the way through, etc. But they managed to make the cookies to perfection. Roz and her sister Jan moulded strawberry ice cream into a cookie-cream-centre shape, and the result was spectacular. Yours truly applied the icing greeting. I think I've found a new favourite cake!
The birthday girls certainly ate it up! And they washed it down with some of the wine we picked up in Kelowna.
