The Railway Series

Can you believe Thomas the Tank Engine has been around since 1942?? I remember watching episodes of Thomas on television as a kid. Little did I know he'd been around decades before I made my appearance in this world.

I can't say I was a huge fan as this show seemed to be geared more towards boys. But Thomas did have some good lessons to teach on cooperation, friendship, and generally on how to be a "useful" citizen. Some important stuff even some 68 years later.

Mateus celebrated his 2nd birthday this weekend with a Thomas the Tank Engine themed party and I was asked to prepare the cake in the same theme. So here's what I came up with. The inside of this one is chocolate cake with Oreo crumb buttercream.

Happy birthday Mateus!
