before 21 years we came back home with a new born baby - m.
it was in tel aviv. we were new in tel aviv. new migrants from jerusalem.
as soon as we came home, there was a knock on the door and the neighbor from upstairs brought me a nice piece of cake.
a coconut and chocolate cake. still warm and fresh.
was more or less the best thing i ate in days, and more or less - the best cake ever!
soon it turned to be my favorite cake and the recipe is quite hard to read because of the stains of butter and egg on it.
only after 21 year, as i was wondering what cake should i back for m.'s birthday,
i realized that actually, with me together, before 21 years,
while nursing, this cake became also the favorite of baby m....
both we love this combination of coconut and chocolate.
while looking for a name for our beloved cat, we all agreed that cocus is the right name.
she lived with us happily for about 3 years.
she died last year in a car accident and it was the point where i decided - no more cats!
the other option, the dog option i canceled immediately. a dog, i knew, is another child at home, and for that i wasn't ready yet.
time past, and it didn't take long till i found myself staring on dogs as if they are human babies...
another month or two and i said: ok, let's consider the possibility.
"to consider..." with n. is usually excepted as: let's go right now to take a dog!
and that's how choco came into our life -
and what does this story to do with m. and the cake and her birthday?
well, first of all she is brown like chocolate and that's the reason for her name.
so after cocus, she is the chocolate, in this tasty combination.
second, after a few days we realized that she also likes the coconut-chocolate cake...
and what about the birthday cake?
m. herself took better care of this...
happy birthday m.! you still smell to me like a mixture of coconut and chocolate!
