I love it that you found a solution to your problem with such grace and modesty. I am honored to contribute and be sweetly rewarded with cake made with hope, love and gratitude – which of course means these calories don’t count! LOL
Ms Logan – YOU ROCK!
Thanks to you, Bake Me a Wish, The Hilton Hotel and your very smart family who gave you the approval, courage and determination to overcome a nationwide crisis that is affecting everyone.
