This weekend, we celebrated the birthday of a dear friend and faithful reader of Greensboro Daily Photo. If you are local and follow our blog, chances are you were introduced to the site by Jane. Jane loves living in Greensboro and learning everything she can about her city. She reads the blog diligently, helps us research information, calls immediately if she finds a misspelling or slip of grammar. She also comes up with great ideas about places to photograph and has been known to join us for afternoons of photographing Greensboro. Everyone needs a friend like Jane.

Jane is also a fan of all things French, an inference that can be made upon seeing the cake above. The Eiffel Tower/Fleur de Lis cake is the colors of her soleil yellow Quimper/French dinnerware. Since Jane’s birthday comes so close to the anniversary of the Battle of Guilford Courthouse, next year, we’re planning a Nathanael Greene in the round-a-bout cake. Get out the blue and bronze cake gel. Seriously, readers like you and Jane make our 365-days-a-year effort all worthwhile.
