19 Dec, 2014 Peace's birthday

One of those days in camp that I woke up feeling so good with myself, and ready to face the day like a social beast with plans to make as many friends as possible.
I go for morning parade where I never pay attention but I'm always excited about the activity. I went to the back of my platoons line and started gisting with my secondary school mate and friend Abutu (the architect) about the good old days. Then this pretty petite girl (another architect) joins us. I introduced Abutu as my school son, we laugh and he tells her I'm a twin. The conversation that day got so interesting we forgot to ask her name until the parade ended.

On the day of swearing in, in the mist of a crowd of people wearing their crested vests and khaki trousers, with big smiles on their faces, Peace finds Peter, looking bigger and not smiling at her as Sammy would've, so she immediately knows this is the second twin. They start talking, he gets her name and she gets to know how much we enjoy baking, he even shows her some of the designs he did in the past. Her birthday came up after camp, then Sammy & Pete immediate came to her mind.
She didn't  have any specific type of cake she wanted, but she wanted to get a feel of what we can do. Naturally we get excited about her type of order because we can try the latest tutorials or lecture we've got.
LEMON SPONGE CAKE It was! and our hands were on the plough.
Peace has this warm smile, that makes you think of rainbows and Roses. We started thinking of a design that will bring out this soft character in her. We then decided to make a basket and fill it with roses.

When Peace got her cake, she was so excited... she started smiling ear to ear. it was a very memorable and happy day for us all.
I hope you enjoyed the read, looking forward to our next article. Let's hope it will be about you. ;)
