for the great turnout on Sahagun 2nd year celebration. A special thank you to Miranda who made a huge delicious spinning chocolate cake that got thoroughly wiped out even though we all just ate slivers. See Sahagun's Hall of Chocolate Fame award winners by clicking on the website link below. A special note to the parents of the cute little girl who came in the morning on that day: she left her little cat-eye sunglasses, we are saving them in lost and found.
Thank you and Happy Summer!
