Happy Birthday Anton

Our Friend Anthony turned 46 yesterday and the day was busy preparing and enjoying the evening for the Brain Injury NZ Charity Auction and Dinner. This was held at the Hotel Grand Chancellor and our MC was John Campbell from TV3. The evening was very enjoyable with a lot of money being raised for this charity, even amongst a 4.6 aftershock. (not so flash when you are 14 floors up!)
Anton asked for a whopping great big banana cake with cream. So here we have it. Delivery will take place this afternoon so if you are passing his place this weekend, I am sure he will share!

I made the trusty banana cake that I made for my brother in law at the beginning of the year. Cooks slowly for an hour on 160 C, is very moist with the help of a little yoghurt and milk and three eggs, and of course 3 mashed very ripe bananas.

Next weekend is Labour Weekend and we celebrate the birth of my youngest cherub 19 years ago......I really do feel old as I type that. Ben will choose the cake which will be interesting as he refuses to look, touch or acknowledge anything fruity.

Until then.....
