Just as we were all done with dinner, girls wants to go wash up and do the stuff we do before we go to bed so we walked to the shower rooms. On the way back, Ping wanted to fill up a pail of water to 'sae kah' before we go to sleep. Tai lou helped carry it back to the campsite and set it down next to the picnic table. Ping wanted the pail to be near the tent so that after we sae kah, we don't have to walk around to get back to the tent. Just as Ping picked up the pail, Tai lou took it from Ping and says no no no, it is time to make smores (a popular BBQ and camping snack made of graham crackers, chocolate and marshmallow). So Ping hen ren zhen go find the satay sticks and marshmallow, thinking that Jo and Lin Pei went to look for the graham crackers and chocolate bar.
Not too long later, Jo and Lin Pei came from behind, singing Happy Birthday and carrying a cake with a candle that sets the Happy Birthday melody…we're not getting ready to make smores! We're celebrating Ping's birthday! This is definitely a very successful surprise because Ping was all prepared for smores AND Ping had no clue that she was driving her own b'day cake all the way to Sleeping Bear!!!!
Thanks a bunch to everyone! And especially to Lin for making it happen and TT for the great suggestion! The blackforest cake from Roma Bakery is very good! Ping and Lin had it for breakfast on Sunday too!
