Ashcake, Virginia

Alyona has a great birthday. Her exhibit at the art show (see yesterday's post) resulted in several sales and a commission for some photography. This evening it is a party with presents ...

... including cake festooned with 18 candles which ...

... she dispatches with acclarity.
