Paul & Silas

Being a twin is very exciting, especially when you're identical. I can remember so many adventures or I should say stunts we pulled off on our teachers, prefects, matrons and even reverend brothers during our secondary school days. So when ever I see a set of fraternal twins, I just whisper to myself, "they ain't about that life"...lolz.
Pete has this close friend; Hauwa who tasted our birthday cake and loved it. Then her younger brothers who are a set of fraternal twins; Paul & Silas had their birthday coming up and Hauwa wanted to decorate their day with a cake from Penslaj confectionaries.
Pete and I were named after our paternal and maternal grand fathers respectively, but when I heard about the order, I started wondering what the story behind their names 'Paul and Silas' were, because I didn't want to agree it was only biblical.

Hauwa wanted the exact type of cake she tasted, nothing more, nothing less. A coconut cake! And since we just got the recipe, we couldn't wait to bake it again.
When the day came, the cake was baked and we started staring at it. We brainstormed and searched for the perfect design. This is a set of twins we're talking about here and nothing we had done in the past will pass for what we want to present. They love football and the colours green & white, that was what we had to work with. We then decided to pray about it and design as the spirit leads, it took few hours but we got it right

We got a feedback of how happy the twins and their friends were, during their party; They loved the cake and Hauwa was the hero in this episode for making her brothers' day. I'm thankful for close friends and happy days, I hope you enjoyed the read. Looking forward to the next post and let's hope it will be about you.
