Ha, yes I'd prefer a red tailed fox too, but being through a dangerous situation creates a strong bond. Thank you for your comment, Gary, and never give up, never surrender!
Thank you, lomax61. I absolutely understand your feelings about photographs in recipe books, but in this case it's actually possible to make the cake look like the the one in the photograph, my cat is the witness.
Thank you, Gary! I will never see the blue of the Mediterranean Sea again as I did the first time years ago when I looked at it from the Promenade des Anglais in Nice.
