Happy Delaware Day! December 7 marks the day in 1787 when Delaware became the first to ratify the U.S. Constitution, thereby making it the First State (or, as we like to say, "the State that started a Nation").
This is not to be confused with Separation Day, which commemorates the day in June of 1776 when the three counties of Delaware declared themselves independent of the Pennsylvanian rule that they had been under...and thereby also separated themselves from British rule.
Married 50 years today. Visiting the church where we were married this morning, then wild celebration with friends and family at beloved mother-in-law's home.
Thank you all for the kind messages! Slight glitch in celebration... Despite email from the church saying they would be open, it was closed, but someone else arrived and took photos of us at the church door. It was a beautiful (cold) day near New York and enjoyed by all.

Possible ways around the problem: cover the cake with Glad Wrap, held in place by the candles; have the candles on a separate board.

I wished Firenze HB on Farcebark, and meant to post here, so thanks for doing that, JJ!
A lot of Capricorns, it seems—just like Jesus and Elvis.
