Canada 150




Happy First of July and Canada Day, celebrating 150 years!  I did this unfurled flag piece on red cardstock (6" x 6") in acrylic outlined with a fine point black marker.

And husband M celebrates a birthday today on Canada Day! Daughter L got him this pretty cake:





L made these salted chocolate chip tahini cookies for us and they are beyond delicious. Here is the recipe.
