Happy Canada Day

Wishing everyone a Happy Canada Day.  It’s a perfect summer day here in Milton, Ontario (not too hot.)   Kelly at Design Ties wrote an informative and witty post about Canada.

This cake is a Canadian classic and so easy to make.  I’m sure I have made it at least a dozen times.  Click here for the recipe – I use real whipped cream instead of the fake stuff.

Read an earlier post to get some ideas on decorating with red.

    You know, I have always wanted to live in Canada. I just know the country and I have a karmic love affair. Perhaps one day I too will make this gorgeous dish in celebration of living in your gorgeous country!.. :)

    Hope you had a fab national day!

  7. We make the same cake every year. Can't beat fresh local strawberries and freshly whipped cream. Yum. I made this for my neighbours when we lived in the US, they got to celebrate Canada Day with us and then we lived it up on the 4th with them!
