Waiting for her cupcake... She can smell them!
We are celebrating today!!! It’s Trudi’s birthday – and she’s 16 years old! She has lived longer then any dog I’ve ever had (my entire life!). She never ceases to amaze us with her sweet, quiet sparkle – and her ability to keep up with the other dogs. She remains top dog among the pack (now 3)… Princess Trudi, to all of us (aka great, great grandma to Annabelle – and Annie listens up when grandma speaks, aka Ch Oakley’s Trauma).
Trudi LOVES the famous Magnolia Bakery cupcakes (on the corner of Bleecker & Eleventh Streets in Greenwich Village – made famous on Sex in the City). I can attest to how yummy these cupcakes are, having stood in line at this bakery when in NYC for at least one hour (seriously, the line is a block long). Well, I didn’t go to NYC to get Trudi a batch of these famous cupcakes. My daughter, who used to live there, gave me the Magnolia Bakery Cookbook as a Christmas gift one year. Since then, Trudi has had her special cupcake on each advancing birthday.
Having been told 4 years ago that Trudi probably had 2 months to live, we have much cause to celebrate – and she can eat whatever her sweet, little heart desires!
